Thom will introduce the Circulair Bagger Overzicht (CBO), a tool that helps match dredged sediment with circular applications ranging from dike reinforcement and agricultural soil to ceramics and asphalt.Three different perspectives, one common ground: discovering the potential beneath our feet.Program16:30 — Walk-in17:00 — Speakers17:45 — Drinks & networking18:30 — EndAfter the talks, stick around for drinks and meet others working on circular solutions, biobased materials, soil, food innovation and ecological restoration.📅 Thursday, September 3⏰ 16:30–18:30📍 Balzaal, BlueCity, Rotterdam🌱 Hosted by BlueCity Lab🎟 Free entrance🍻 First drink on us!Whether you’re an entrepreneur, researcher, student, policymaker or simply curious about the circular economy: you’re more than welcome.See you at BlueCity! 💚 - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/rotterdam/bluecity-townhall-bodem-lab-takeover/100001983067611609 - **Event Categories**: fitness - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 1 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 2 hours - Location: BlueCity - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: EUR ## Event venue details - **city**: Rotterdam - **state**: ZH - **country**: Netherlands - **location**: BlueCity - **lat**: 51.91987100000001 - **long**: 4.501508999999942 - **full address**: BlueCity, 100 Maasboulevard, Rotterdam, Netherlands ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: BlueCity Townhall: bodem Lab Takeover - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/1aaf29c178792f440a4b9144f8291b9540cca434740db53c031509f1339eb33a-rimg-w1080-h1080-dc0401f1-gmir.jpg?v=1770978896 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is BlueCity Townhall: bodem Lab Takeover being held? - **A:** BlueCity Townhall: bodem Lab Takeover takes place on Thu, 03 Sep, 2026 at 04:30 pm to Thu, 03 Sep, 2026 at 06:30 pm at BlueCity, 100 Maasboulevard, Rotterdam, Netherlands. - **Q**: Who is organizing BlueCity Townhall: bodem Lab Takeover? - **A:** BlueCity Townhall: bodem Lab Takeover is organized by BlueCity. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "BlueCity Townhall: bodem Lab Takeover", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/1aaf29c178792f440a4b9144f8291b9540cca434740db53c031509f1339eb33a-rimg-w1080-h1080-dc0401f1-gmir.jpg?v=1770978896", "startDate": "2026-09-03T16:30:00+02:00", "endDate": "2026-09-03T18:30:00+02:00", "url": "https://allevents.in/rotterdam/bluecity-townhall-bodem-lab-takeover/100001983067611609", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "BlueCity", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "100 Maasboulevard", "postalCode": "3063 NS", "addressLocality": "Rotterdam", "addressRegion": "ZH", "addressCountry": "NL" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "51.91987100000001", "longitude": "4.501508999999942" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "On Thursday, September 3, BlueCity Townhall returns with a special Soil Lab Takeover, hosted by BlueCity Lab.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "EUR", "availabilityStarts": "2026-02-13", "availabilityEnds": "2026-09-03T18:30:00+02:00", "validFrom": "2026-02-13", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/rotterdam/bluecity-townhall-bodem-lab-takeover/100001983067611609" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "EUR", "availabilityStarts": "2026-02-13", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-02-13", "url": "https://allevents.in/rotterdam/bluecity-townhall-bodem-lab-takeover/100001983067611609", "price": 0, "name": "BlueCity Townhall thema Bodem" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "BlueCity", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/bluecity/22981275", "description": "BlueCity is an international icon of circular economy, a national platform for circular entrepreneurs, and a visible local accelerator that empowers circular entrepreneurs and inspires citizens.
