Makers Unite is a textile-based creative agency on a big social mission. They are dedicated to supporting the creative talent of newcomers, offering training programs to develop their skills and enable them to work independently. The agency collaborates with newcomers on creative assignments for their partners.

Makers Unite also helps companies achieve their sustainable and ethical ambitions. Here's how it works: newcomers arrive in the Netherlands and settle in their homes. When they are ready to find a job, they are welcomed into the Makers Unite Creative Lab, where they undergo a talent development traineeship.

Graduates become part of the agency's community, which consists of designers, artists, and filmmakers. Together, they offer creative products and services for companies looking to become more sustainable and inclusive. Makers Unite has already made a significant impact, employing newcomers and promoting ethical production.

They have recovered and upcycled 7000 life vests from Greece's beaches and have employed 9 newcomers in their Tailor Team. They also offer various services, such as textile production for sustainable clothing, production design and development, co-creation sprints, and remote makers workshops.
