Revenue model

1. Public-Private Partnership (PPS) co-funding: Holland High Tech is a Dutch Top Sector (Stichting TKI HTSM) that co-funds R&D projects via the PPS-I (Publiek-Private Samenwerkingen) scheme, including PPS-I Strategic Programs, by combining government funding with private contributions from industry and knowledge institutions. Revenue is structured around specific calls (HTSM Call, MKB Hightech call, MKB Defensie call, KIEM HighTech Call).
2. MKB innovation stimulation (SME innovation stimulation): Operates the Innovatiemakelaarsregeling (Innovation Brokers Scheme) and MKB Innovatiestimulering to provide grants and matchmaking for SME-led high-tech innovation projects.
3. Sponsorship/partnership for events and ecosystem coordination: Coordinates events (NETWORKING EVENT) and collaborates with EU programs (e.g., European funding for photonic chip pilot factory in Eindhoven, ~€133 million), sponsorships, and ecosystem services as referenced across multiple innovation domain pages.

Core offering

Holland High Tech (Stichting TKI HTSM) is the Dutch Topconsortium voor Kennis en Innovatie for High Tech Systems & Materials, coordinating public-private R&D funding and ecosystem collaboration across the Netherlands. It administers the PPS-I co-funding scheme, strategic R&D programs, and annual funding calls (HTSM, MKB Hightech, MKB Defensie, KIEM HighTech) that finance projects submitted by consortia of knowledge institutions, large industry, and SMEs in domains such as semiconductors, quantum technologies, photonics, mechatronics, batteries, advanced materials, space, and systems engineering.

Product overview

Holland High Tech (Stichting TKI HTSM) is a Dutch public-private innovation coordination body - the Topconsortium for Knowledge and Innovation in High Tech Systems & Materials - rather than a single software product. Its portfolio is a platform-plus-modules architecture: a single coordinating brand (Holland High Tech) under which several interconnected offerings are delivered. The core is the Publiek Private Samenwerkingen (PPS) mechanism, including PPS-I Strategische Programma's (2024-2027 and 2025-2027), which fund and steer the Strategische Programma's such as Battery Integration, Advanced Instrumentation, High Tech Materials, Quantum Technologies, Photonics and Optical Technologies, Semiconductor Manufacturing Equipment, Microelectronics, Medische Technologie, Space, Systems Engineering voor Hightech Systems, Advanced Chip Packaging, Circulariteit en Grondstoffen, and Veiligheidsmarkt. On top of this, annual funding calls (HTSM Call, MKB Hightech Call, MKB Defensie Call, KIEM HighTech Call) and the InnovatieMakelaars SME stimulation programme give SMEs access to the same ecosystem. R&D priorities are framed by eleven Innovatiedomeinen (e.g. Semiconductor Technologies, Quantum Technologies, Optical Systems & Integrated Photonics, Mechatronics & Optomechatronics) and four Urgente transities (Circulaire economie, Energietransitie, Digitalisering & Smart Industry, Sleuteltechnologieën), supported by technology roadmaps (High Tech Materials, Advanced Instrumentation, Systems Engineering, Automotive) and the VISIE 2030 strategic vision. Communication and ecosystem glue is provided by the Holland High Tech Networking Event, the monthly Holland High Tech Update newsletter, the annual Jaaroverzichten reviews, the Kennis- en Innovatieagenda's (KIA Sleuteltechnologieën, KIA Veiligheid), and the public Holland High Tech Branding Toolkit.

Direct peers

• PhotonDelta: Dutch photonic chip ecosystem coordinator and growth accelerator, directly overlapping with Holland High Tech's Photonics and Integrated Photonics innovation domain. PhotonDelta leads the €133M Eindhoven photonic chip pilot factory effort and operates as a public-private growth fund with a comparable coordinating role within the Dutch HTSM sector.
• MaterialenNL: Dutch materials research coordination platform that spans the HTSM, Energy, and Chemistry top sectors. MaterialenNL directly interfaces with Holland High Tech's High Tech Materials roadmap and programconsortium, serving a comparable cross-sector coordination function for materials R&D.
• TKI Chemie / Topsector Chemie: A sister Dutch Top Sector / TKI organization coordinating public-private R&D in the chemicals sector. Operates an identical PPS-I funding and program coordination model, often coordinating with Holland High Tech on cross-sector programs such as materials and energy materials.
• Battery Competence Cluster-NL (BCC-NL): Dutch public-private partnership co-founded by RAI AINL with DAF, VDL, TNO, and others to accelerate Dutch battery technology development. BCC-NL operates in the same public-private coordination model as Holland High Tech and partners on the Battery Integration strategic program (e.g., SeBaPaD, BIGCM).
• Topsector Logistiek: A sister Dutch Top Sector organization also operating under the TKI framework to coordinate public-private R&D in logistics. Shares the same governance, funding (PPS-I), and policy alignment model as Holland High Tech and is a natural peer within the Top Sector / TKI ecosystem.
• RAI Automotive Industry NL: Dutch automotive industry association that co-founded BCC-NL and is a Holland High Tech partner in the Duurzame Mobiliteit innovation domain. Operates a similar public-private coordination function for the Dutch automotive ecosystem, including shared participation in automotive roadmaps and consortium programs.

Broad incumbents

• IMEC: Largest independent semiconductor and nanoelectronics R&D center in Europe (Belgium), coordinating advanced chip R&D across a much broader portfolio and international footprint. Comparable in coordinating applied R&D for the semiconductor value chain, but at significantly greater scale and with direct pilot-line capabilities beyond Holland High Tech's coordination mandate.

Regional players

• Photonics21: European Technology Platform for photonics, coordinating public-private R&D and policy alignment at the EU level. Operates in a parallel coordination function to Holland High Tech for the European photonics ecosystem, with overlapping stakeholders (TU Eindhoven, TNO, Carl Zeiss SMT, ASML) but a pan-European rather than Dutch-only remit.
• Brainport Development: Regional economic development agency for the Brainport Eindhoven region and a key Holland High Tech partner (co-organizing the Drive Forward congress with TNO and RAI AINL). Operates an overlapping regional innovation coordination mandate focused on the high-tech manufacturing cluster in North Brabant.

Others

• NWO (Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek): Dutch national research council that distributes major research funding (including the Stevinpremie and Spinoza Prize) and is both a key partner and partial funding peer for Holland High Tech. NWO co-funds many of the same PPS projects and is represented on the High Tech Materials roadmap team, making it a closely related (though larger) R&D funding and coordination actor.
