Horti Business Cluster 1 en 2 Flora Campus Westland is a lively residential and business district but also a unique addition to the Glass City (Glazen Stad), showcasing Westland's distinctive entrepreneurship and innovation talent. Rather than taking the traditional approach of single-storey industrial units, this is achieved through stacked construction with flexible business space that favours an innovation-oriented working environment. The Horti Business Clusters at Flora Campus Westland are primarily intended for companies that focus on technology for protected horticulture, or on the relationship between horticulture and healthy food (horti-health). These technologies are normative for the future of horticulture and are used, for example, by companies that focus on and develop climate control systems, artificial intelligence (AI), sensor technology, robotics, Internet of Things (IoT), integrated cultivation systems and/or vertical farming. Collaboration between these types of companies is fostered by bringing them together in this area, amid a large production and sales market. Horti Business Cluster 1 is formed by the WHC complex with its test greenhouse. Space will also be provided for a business centre and hotel with 80 rooms, clustered and designed as the Horti Business Tower. Horti Business Cluster 2 offers innovation-oriented and horti tech related business space for companies. An important element of this is the Greenhouse of the Future (Kas van de Toekomst), a shared research facility that other companies in the area can use. The cluster will include flexible multi-tenant (horti-tech) buildings, in which the size of business units can be adapted to the evolving need for space of established companies. This makes establishment attractive for start-ups and scale-ups as well as grown-ups. The Business Clusters are connected by a promenade leading from the Horti Business Tower to the Greenhouse of the Future. Space is also provided in this cluster for mature businesses that need premises with customised facilities and an individual look and feel. These are larger companies with space requirements ranging between 5,000 to 10,000 m2 . 15 Masterplan Flora Campus Westland
