Working with Oss & Partners on the digital side of Tref het in Oss.

Stichting Oss & Partners brings the municipality, businesses, cultural institutions and volunteers together around one story about Oss. Since September 2026 we have been building with them, together with Vindbaar.ai.

Stichting Oss & Partners is the public-private foundation behind Tref het in Oss, the tourism and leisure platform of the municipality of Oss. Elusive Innovations, also based in Oss, has worked with the foundation since September 2026. We built a workflow that prepares event requests from the inbox, created a visual identity and a website for the foundation, and are mapping out together how events, partners and figures can come together in one place. Vindbaar.ai handles website management and content.

Who Oss & Partners are

The foundation carries the place marketing of the municipality of Oss: what visitors and residents see on Tref het in Oss, what the information centres tell them and how partners get their offering listed. A small team with an interim board, and a network far wider than the foundation itself.

  • The municipality of Oss
  • Four tourist information centres: Oss, Ravenstein, Megen and Lith
  • Businesses, cultural institutions and event organisers
  • Dozens of volunteers

What we do together

Four tracks, each with its own status. We state what is running and what is still in progress.

  • In use since 24 September 2026

    Events calendar: from email to listing

    Event requests arrive by email. The software reads them, creates a draft per activity in the format of the existing events system and queues it for the editors.

  • Website on a test domain, launch in preparation

    Visual identity and own website

    Oss & Partners had no face of its own next to Tref het in Oss. There is now a visual identity and an organisation website for partners, board and applicants, separate from the visitor platform.

  • Workspace set up in October 2026

    AI in daily work

    Meeting notes, email and recurring writing: together with the foundation we set up an AI workspace that writes in its own house style and tone. The foundation uses it themselves.

  • Mapping it out together

    The digital foundation

    How do events, partner information and figures come together in one place instead of loose emails and spreadsheets? We are mapping that out together with the foundation.

How the events workflow works

We built around the inbox and events system that were already there. Software prepares the work; editors decide what goes online.

  1. 01

    Read the request

    One email can contain several activities. Each activity gets its own draft, with date, time and category already filled in.

  2. 02

    Review in one place

    A queue shows new requests and changes. Possible duplicate activities and deviations from the listing requirements are flagged.

  3. 03

    Transfer with approval

    After approval the software fills the existing system. New items are saved unpublished: publishing remains an editorial action.

Automate the data transfer. Keep the decisions with the people who know the calendar.

Who does what

  • Stichting Oss & Partners

    Direction, choices and the relationships with the municipality, partners and information centres.

  • Vindbaar.ai

    Website management and content for Tref het in Oss: copy, events calendar, social and the monthly report.

  • Elusive Innovations

    Software and automation, the foundation's visual identity and website, AI in daily work and the research into the digital foundation.

What we do not claim here

There is no before-and-after measurement of time saved on the events calendar yet. So there are no savings percentages here, only what was built and how it works. Once that measurement exists, we will add the figures.

What is Stichting Oss & Partners?

The public-private foundation behind [Tref het in Oss](https://trefhetinoss.nl), the tourism and leisure platform of the municipality of Oss. It connects the municipality, four tourist information centres, businesses, cultural institutions and volunteers.

What does Elusive Innovations do for Oss & Partners?

A workflow that prepares event requests from the inbox, a visual identity and organisation website, an AI workspace for daily writing, and research into one digital foundation for events, partners and figures.

Does the software publish to the events calendar itself?

No. The software prepares drafts and transfers them to the existing system after approval, but saves new items unpublished. Publishing is done by the editors.

What is the role of Vindbaar.ai?

[Vindbaar.ai](https://vindbaar.ai) handles website management and content for Tref het in Oss. Elusive Innovations does the software, the foundation's identity and website, and the research.
