Ive got a great idea! Economy
From the TNO report: Knowledge as an economic engine - December
2009An investment in higher education is an investment in the urban
economy of the future. Recent studies have shown that the knowledge
economy provides jobs, economic value and innovation. And the
student also plays its role in it. A calculation of TNO shows that
each student is contributing Euro 25.000,- to the urban economy
annually. This study is concerns the spatial-economic impacts of
higher education students insight in thirteen Dutch cities. The
results are also useful in other university cities such as
Amsterdam.
The study reveals that the student economy shows an important
facilitating factor in strengthening a local or regional economy.
From the TNO study, we learn that cities with higher education
institutions where many students live, are very attractive
attribute as a location for research and innovative companies. They
have and keep all those clever people at their fingertips. The
students of today are the knowledge workers of tomorrow.
In short, a city that creates opportunities through knowledge
clustering and provides space for proper housing for students and
graduates, is working on a better economic development for all
citizens. Even in these difficult economic times for colleges,
universities, university medical centers, municipalities and
businesses, the new economy will be an attractive prospect to work
with the student housing corporations and urban locations to join
forces and so still take advantage of knowledge as an economic
engine.

The Start-Up City
From the research: The Campus City Project - Burton Hamfelt /
OeverZaaijer June 2013
If cities want to engage in talent migration, high level
decisions need to be made in order to accommodate the unique
demands of an emerging innovation based economy. Universities,
cities and industry need to collaborate better together towards
forming new kinds of educational environments that often do not
comply with the traditional campus model. The Campus City Project
in turn asks, Can the next generation campus be an urban model for
the city in the future? There is growing evidence on how cities
with both universities and strong connection with research and
innovation outperform other more industrial based cities in their
economic growth and resilience to change.
Campus City Project takes this starting point as a basis for
exploring what the knowledge and innovation based economy can mean
to the city of Amsterdam in the future when examined from the
perspective of the increasingly mobile student. The next generation
campus is about migrating away from dedicated closed off and static
knowledge based environments to exploiting the spatial consequences
of distributing education, industry and student start ups within
the city as a closed circuit; the ubiquitous campus. Campus City
Project literally circulates around this new type of campus start
up model proliferating itself as a responsive and interactive
system empowering and kick starting urban regeneration.

Studentrepeneur
Amsterdam is a great learning environment. It has the scale of a
campus and an ever growing supply of organizations, institutes,
start ups and companies within reach by bike or tram. This city is
a unique place where talents flourish and professionals develop
alongside. The question is, can we provide a hybrid
learning-environment in which graduate students can have
living/working spaces, in line with the wishes and requirements of
our time?
The student economy is one of the most vital and growing
markets. The doubling of the amount of university students in
Amsterdam in the past 10 years has given new impetus and economic
engine to Amsterdam and other university cities to study and
exploit this phenomenon. Although the cost of education is rising,
a considerable market can be scouted through the growing numbers of
student businesses, in which we can help bring down costs.
A variety of new spatial, social, and micro-financial structures
is imaginable through the growth of the student economy, in which
it can be facilitated and given shape. On the basis of this new
urban reality, student-initiated projects are used as a
cost-efficient way of motivating and stimulating knowledge-based
talent. A new economy that can be literally kicked into action.
Students of knowledge-based talent worldwide remain are on the
prowl, in search of new challenges and experiences. It is in this
context that the role of the cities to connect to this talent for
the benefit of their own empowerment, innovation and new
markets.

The Start-Up City
Concept
Student populations in Amsterdam are quickly rising, while the
need for traditional large scale urban planned housing projects is
declining. Young ambitious people and innovative companies are
flocking to the cities in search of higher quality living and
working spaces that either do not exist or are too large or
expensive for graduates and start ups. There is an undeveloped
market targeting forward thinking students and start ups who want
to share spaces and cross breed ideas.
Living and working together is needed in new and affordable
ways. What kind of spatial urban conditions are best suited for the
young enterprising and creative class?
Amsterdam with its third University Amsterdam Metropolitan
Solutions (AMS) has recently be given a substantial grant and new
location to kick start a new and more in-tune university research
environment dedicated to solving the urban problems and challenges
facing cities today. Can we start to imagine new forms of housing
in this way as well?
