Participate in new ventures
The Amsterdam research landscape sees a continuous emergence of new opportunities, spin-offs, start-ups, and products and services. These benefit society in areas as diverse as education, healthcare, clean energy and information and communication technology (ICT). New companies started by staff (spin-offs) and students (start-ups) offer opportunities for collaboration and investment.
Meet start-ups at the universities’ incubators Amsterdam Venture Studios and Demonstrator Lab.

UvA Ventures Holding
AMC Ventures Holding
