Taking the stage - R&R festival 2026

It's allmost festivaltime ✨

This week we’ll be meeting up in Amersfoort, where we’ll be celebrating together all the hard work that’s gone into our programme over the past few years! In this announcement, some sneak peek details about the showcase market.


Please note: there are still a few places left, so even at the last minute you’re still welcome if you haven’t registered yet!

Whilst the plenary programme will hopefully have you on the edge of your seat, at the festival market (after lunchtime) you’ll find yourself strolling from one source of inspiration to the next. Think of the market as a box of chocolates where, as a connoisseur, you can choose according to your taste: with fourteen showcases across two rounds, there’s almost more choice than you could wish for!

You can expect to have time to attend one in-depth themed session (for which you should already be registered) and watch up to four showcases. It’s worth taking a closer look at the programme overview in advance and deciding what appeals to you most.

You’ll find material on some of the showcases on RRview, in case you’ve got a bit of spare time for some pre-event excitement:

+ Postdoc policy from RadboudUMC

+ Quality matrices from Universiteit Leiden (new! in Dutch)

+ Report on the sustainability of the scientific system by the Ratenau Intituut and Het Groene Brein (in Dutch)

+ The Academic Activities Catalogue of Erasmus University

+ The KNAW's Vision on appreciative Leadership

+ Development Boards from Maastricht University (in Dutch)

+ GROW @Utrecht University

If you have any questions, please check in with us on RRview or send me an email: chajes@unl.nl

See you next Thursday!
