The Hottest Startups in Amsterdam in 2024
There are around 4,000 startups in Amsterdam—the best 10 are tackling forest fires, decarbonizing plastics, and building robot bricklayers.
“Successful innovation in Amsterdam is driven by global challenges, such as the energy transition or the aging population," explains Joël Dori of StartupAmsterdam, which works to bring the public and private sectors together to support startups, scale-ups, entrepreneurs and other players in the local ecosystem. Since Salar al Khafaji and Sebastiaan Visser launched it in 2021, Monumental robots has built multiple projects for top contractors in the Netherlands, including the facades of free-standing villas, social housing units, industrial buildings, and quay walls. Haaven, founded by Thomas Leeson, Davide Cardu, Sacha Bloem, and Dédé Kruisman in 2023, is a one-stop shop for building tiny houses—that’s any space smaller than 50m², which makes them easy to transport as a single module or flat-pack on a truck.
