Our strategy
The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Strategy 2026-2029 serves as a guiding compass for all DEI initiatives within TNO. The strategy is built on three pillars: innovation, good employer practices (goed werkgeverschap) and internationalisation. By bringing together different perspectives and fostering a variety of skills, TNO can create societal impact through its innovations.
Studies consistently show that teams that acknowledge and embrace diversity, and that know how to collaborate while taking into account their differences, have stronger innovative capabilities.
Our ambition
In 2029, TNO has a culture in which every employee can flourish: a respectful, inclusive, and equitable work environment, where leaders and employees are aware of their responsibilities in creating and maintaining that environment.
We are aware of the strengths as well as the complexities that come with diverse teams. Because we have learned how to collaborate well, we are more creative and innovative. We deliver innovations that match the diverse needs and contexts in society.
Our priorities
We are all responsible; Embrace differences; Work together; Innovate better
