Why we are members of the Network Council
Willem Swager
Director Patagonia
“Amsterdam Economic Board provides a network of like-minded people and helps us collaborate locally. Like at the United Repair Centre, which repairs and puts new life into 20,000 damaged Patagonia garments per year.”
Marja Ruigrok
Vice chair Vervoerregio Amsterdam
“Cycling is a great alternative to commuting by car; 61% of the population travels less than 15 kilometers to work. Green Deal Bicycle, together with Network Council members, encourages children and adults to favour riding a bike.”
Bart Kruijssen

Geert ten Dam
Chair of the Executive Board, UvA
“We need to make use of the data, knowledge, and capacity of the various partners. To me, the Amsterdam Economic Board is the joint effort for a responsible and resilient Amsterdam metropolis.”
