The Next Economy is also a collaborative economy, in which the balance of power between the different parties will shift, while new roles and alliances are created. Accordingly, in this transition design's role will shift in unexpected ways.
In his Next Walk, Freek Persyn exhibition curator of IABR–2016 and partner of 51N4E, will highlight what he feels are the most outspoken examples of this trend, from learning systems to boundary objects, and thus demonstrate the diverse ways in which design can contribute to the creation of new collaborations and unexpected alliances.

Traditional education, with its focus on theoretical knowledge, will not sufficiently prepare us for the Next Economy, argues Daan Zandbelt, partner of De Zwarte Hond and Lead Designer of the IABR–Atelier Rotterdam. As innovation will more and more be embedded in the production process itself, a learning method is called for that goes beyond theory: learning by doing.
Starting with the IABR–Atelier Rotterdam, in his tour Zandbelt will therefore focus on those projects that propose an approach to urban development that insists on bringing back manufacturing to the city not just as a way to provide for meaningful work, but foremost as a strategy for making better city.

Is being visionary at odds with being pragmatic? The projects and strategies presented at the IABR connect the two - indeed, it is what makes them excellent. They are not utopian imaginations of the city of the future, nor best practices in city development that do not transcend business as usual.

Joachim Declerck, member of IABR–2016's Curator Team, takes the audience on a tour that goes from the smallest intervention in a disadvantaged neighborhood to rethinking the energy production for half a continent. The focus is on the many ways in which designers, together with other actors and stakeholders manage to put visions into practice. Declerck wants to identify and illustrate the opportunities available to designers, policy makers and civilians to achieve real breakthroughs – in order to avoid remaining stuck in the middle, between good intentions and everyday pragmatics.

Anyone can join in the Next Economy. It is not only big companies or governments that decide what you can do or not do. You, and the people around you, can take matters into your own hands. You can start your own business, generate your own energy, or improve your own home or neighborhood to stimulate more local collaboration, solidarity, and economic independence.
Utopian? Next Economy exhibition curator Michiel van Iersel doesn’t think so. He will guide you through the exhibition and show you the projects that prove it can be done.

On Saturday 25 June a culinary-framed guided tour will depart from the IABR location to visit a series of remarkable kiosks in Rotterdam under the devoted guidance of kioskologists Jacques Beljaars and Thomas Rouw. While eating en plein public, the stimulus of kiosks to liveliness, animation and unexpected encounters in public space can be tested and tasted.

As a small freestanding vending booth, the kiosk provides a meaningful contribution to the quality of public space. The kiosk invites passers-by to slow down, to stay and eat in the public domain, to meet with acquaintances and with strangers. It means trade and animation. The entrepreneurs as Public Characters who know their customers well, act as ‘eyes on the street’ and thus improve safety and the quality of life in the city. The kiosk provides human proportions to the build environment and the informal, sometimes even ludic architectonic experiments with anarchistic aesthetics, are a visual relieve amidst the fashionable sleek and slick designed street facades. At last, as a mini-enterprise, the kiosk is an often easy accessible and stable employer, which contributes in a sustainable way to the urban economy.
Within social trends such as the changing composition of the urban population, ‘festivalisation' of public space, civic initiatives and a growing independent and creative entrepreneurship, how can the kiosk act as representative of the Next Economy?

In collaboration with Urban Sociology students from the University of Amsterdam, Jacques Beljaars and Thomas Rouw conduct a research on the architectonic, urban and sociological value of the kiosk.

The kiosk tour is part of a three-part program of En Passant: KIOSK at the IABR. A lecture and an expert meeting complete the kiosk-program at the IABR 2016.
