The one-man consulting firm has expanded over the years to include Rob Manders and Jeroen Bos. They kept a low profile Thursday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"hmc-ld-ebe0ecc6_root hmc-ld-ebe0ecc6_paragraph hmc-ld-300db776_none hmc-ld-91174671_secondary hmc-ld-1d70522a_marginbottom5 hmc-ld-1d70522a_margintop0 hmc-ld-b48c4984_inherit\">With visible pleasure, Van Bochove led his audience &#8211; entirely in English &#8211; through the recent history of Leiden in the PLNT building on Langegracht.<\/p>\n<p class=\"hmc-ld-ebe0ecc6_root hmc-ld-ebe0ecc6_paragraph hmc-ld-300db776_none hmc-ld-91174671_secondary hmc-ld-1d70522a_marginbottom5 hmc-ld-1d70522a_margintop0 hmc-ld-b48c4984_inherit\">The city may have been laughed at by the rest of the country in the 1970s and 1980s, but Leiden has taken full advantage of its dreaded Article 12 status to transform itself into what it is today. Leiden may have surrendered considerable autonomy in the 24 years it was under guardianship, but it emerged from the &#8220;Siege of Government&#8221; at least as well as from the Spanish siege after the Relief in 1574.<\/p>\n<p class=\"hmc-ld-ebe0ecc6_root hmc-ld-ebe0ecc6_paragraph hmc-ld-300db776_none hmc-ld-91174671_secondary hmc-ld-1d70522a_marginbottom5 hmc-ld-1d70522a_margintop0 hmc-ld-b48c4984_inherit\">Did Leiden then get a University of William of Orange, now the Bio Science Park came into being through pioneering work of that same university. That propelled the city upward in its momentum. The old industry, based on fossil fuel energy, was steadily retreating and the knowledge economy was making its appearance. Young people moved to Leiden and defined the new future.<\/p>\n<p class=\"hmc-ld-ebe0ecc6_root hmc-ld-ebe0ecc6_paragraph hmc-ld-300db776_none hmc-ld-91174671_secondary hmc-ld-1d70522a_marginbottom5 hmc-ld-1d70522a_margintop0 hmc-ld-b48c4984_inherit\">In that future, there are still plenty of challenges for &#8216;knowledge hub&#8217; Leiden. Leiden may be leading the way and has discovered new sister cities internationally &#8211; Van Bochove drew a parallel with the Hanseatic cities of old, which traded with each other and used their own legal forms &#8211; but its small size means there are limits. Simply merging with the surrounding villages and expanding the hinterland is not the solution. Van Bochove: &#8220;That&#8217;s too cheap. Work together. Deal locally, but think globally.&#8221;<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-0a2c35a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0a2c35a\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-32e806b\" data-id=\"32e806b\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-938b05f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"938b05f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>This article is a publication of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leidschdagblad.nl\/cnt\/dmf20220825_69955512\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Leidsch Dagblad<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"featured_media":5590,"template":"","class_list":["post-7138","nieuwsberichten","type-nieuwsberichten","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
