About Platform Bèta Techniek The Platform Bèta Techniek has been commissioned by the government, education and business sectors to ensure sufficient availability of people who have a background in scientific or technical education. This approach has been formulated in the Deltaplan Bèta Techniek, a memorandum on preventing shortages. The aim: to achieve a structural increase of 15 per cent more pupils and students in scientific and technical education and to use existing talent more effectively in businesses and research institutes. The aim is not just to make careers in science more appealing, but also to introduce educational innovations that inspire and challenge young people.
The Platform therefore targets schools, universities, businesses, ministries, municipalities, regions and sectors. The objective is to ensure that the future supply of knowledge workers will meet the future demand.

People who have a background in scientific or technical education are essential to our society, both for developing new products and services and for scientific and social change and innovation. Sufficient availability of these knowledge workers is required for the Dutch economy to have a good competitive position. Knowledge-intensive businesses prefer to operate in an inspiring and innovative climate, and people are no different. That is why the Netherlands will need to continue offering an appealing base for businesses operating here which are constantly looking to the future. It also needs to be attractive to new businesses that can provide new jobs, and to people who possess the necessary talent: entrepreneurs, researchers, innovators, and craftsmen.
