Stimuleringsfonds presents talent at Dutch Design Week 2025
From Saturday, October 18 to Sunday, October 26, 2025, the Creative Industries Fund NL will present a new generation of emerging design talent during Dutch Design Week. Visit MU Hybrid Art House and get a glimpse into various design practices through short film portraits, showcasing makers supported by our Talent Development Grant Scheme. Come and be inspired!
Every year, emerging makers working in the fields of design, architecture, and digital culture are given the opportunity to develop artistically and professionally through a grant from the Creative Industries Fund NL. This grant provides them with the time and space to build a strong foundation for a distinctive and meaningful practice within the creative industry. It allows them to grow as makers, explore and deepen important themes in their work, and invest in sustainable relationships – both within their discipline and the broader creative sector. Dutch Design Week is a key platform for showcasing this development.
