Startup in Residence Amsterdam is going regional

For the first time nine municipalities join forces to connect startups, scale-ups, innovative SMB’s and social enterprises with key social and urban challenges in the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area. This regional program is a collaboration across the following municipalities: Haarlem, Haar-lemmermeer, Velsen, Diemen, Lelystad, Almere, Purmerend, Zaanstad and Amsterdam.

Together they defined 7 challenges. These range from  ‘how do we decrease loneliness’ to ‘how do we counter building subsidence’. The complete list of challenges is available at https://startupinresidence.com/ama/social-issues.

Come and join our programme, applications open from August 14 until October 14 2018 23:59!

The  programme  invites  both  Dutch and  international  entrepreneurs  to  social and urban  challenges  in  collaboration  with  the  local  government.
