With this kick-off, the Amsterdam Economic Board, together with our partners, is taking a step towards an innovative region.

By focusing on sustainable and responsible technology and AI, we strengthen the position of the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area in tech and build a future-proof economy.

In October 2024, we chose three themes:

  1. Life Sciences & Health (incl. biotech) for a healthy region
  2. Circular raw materials, energy and industry for a clean region
  3. Sustainable and responsible technology and AI as an incubator for an innovative region

We are ready to develop these themes into concrete projects. So that we can work together in coalitions. The theme of Sustainable and Responsible Technology and AI is central to this kick-off event. We do this together with partners from our network.

Would you also like to contribute to an innovative region with a future-proof economy? Please contact Laetitia or Bart.

The event will be held in Dutch.
