Our ecosystems

With a series of events, a community, publications and accelerator programs, we bring together entrepreneurs, investors, consumers, government, corporates, and other organisations to accelerate positive change in food, fashion, circularity and inclusion. Interested? Join one of our ecosystems

more about Circular

CIRCULAR ECOSYSTEM | The global economy is only 9 percent circular. Impact Hub Amsterdam works with partners including the ING Foundation, the Province of North Holland and CIRCL to accelerate and facilitate a wide range of innovations and solutions on circularity.

more about Food

FOOD ECOSYSTEM | The agro-food sector is one of the largest economic sectors in the Netherlands. Also, the Netherlands is the second largest exporter of agro-food products worldwide. This means the choices we make here have global consequences. What if we used this position to make a real impact across the food chain and accelerate the transition to a more sustainable food system?

more about Inclusion

INCLUSION ECOSYSTEM | This ecosystem is focused on empowering and promoting the social, economic and political inclusion of all, irrespective of age, sex, disability, race, ethnicity, origin, religion or economic or other status.

more about Fashion

FASHION ECOSYSTEM | Through our ecosystem approach we create the resources that are needed to foster positive change in the fashion sector. Projects include FABB, Province of North-Holland Circulair Textile tour and the Tommy Hilfiger Fashion Frontier Challenge.

A great place full of inspiring, talented startups
