Abstract
Partners in the Polder is a book in two parts. Part I is called Unity, and presents the field’s joint vision of the future of the life sciences in the Netherlands, and the past, present and future role of public-private partnerships. Part II, Diversity, looks at (the future of) the life sciences and PPPs from the perspectives of the sectors involved (food, health, chemicals & energy and agriculture) and the disciplines linking them (technology, education, valorization and social aspects).The two parts can be read separately, but together illustrate a field united in diversity. Each chapter in Part II can be read on its own.
