Amsterdam Business Forum
Plenary Meeting
The Amsterdam Business Forum took place at AFAS Live on September 29, 2023, with the theme IMPACT for this edition.
The audience enjoyed talks from speakers including Tim Ferriss (The 4-Hour Workweek), Rutger Bregman (Humankind: A Hopeful History), Erin Meyer (No Rules Rules and The Culture Map), and Typhoon. The day featured multiple talk shows, along with side events and networking opportunities.
The talk shows were held on the Mainstage, set up in the Black Box, with a breakout tent behind the stage for more intimate sessions with speakers. Side events took place between the talk shows at the Talent Stage, which was also arranged in a smaller plenary setup. In addition to the tent in the Black Box, Restaurant First served as another breakout space for small group activities. In the foyer, BNR radio had a studio set up, with ample seating for attendees to relax and catch up over coffee. At the day’s close, all visitors were invited for a reception in the foyer.
