Topics such as mobility, culture, nature, and the economy are also part of this. Our provincial government building is located in the center of the city, next to the Martini Tower. With around 1,000 colleagues, we are working on the future of Groningen. The organization is large enough to make a difference in the region, but small enough to get to know each other quickly.
