Europe has no shortage of AI talent. The challenge is creating the conditions that help great companies scale from here. 💪 That’s why we’re proud to support the launch of The Stack, a new founder-led AI hub in Amsterdam bringing together startups, investors, and corporates to strengthen Europe’s AI ecosystem. 🎉 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝗢𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗴, 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗮𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗵 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽 𝗼𝗳 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁-𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗜 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗽𝘀 𝗮𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝟰,𝟱𝟬𝟬𝗺²! Founders will have access to workspace, tailored development programmes, expert support, direct paths to capital, and launching customers, alongside a purpose-designed event space hosting curated programmes, founder sessions, investor days, hackathons, and product demos. Backed by more than €10 million in private funding and supported by the City of Amsterdam alongside partners including IMC Trading, Google, Deloitte, ABN AMRO Bank N.V., Prosus, ClickHouse and Miro, the initiative is designed to help move Europe from isolated AI pilots to a stronger pipeline of globally competitive AI companies. 🌍 We believe Europe’s competitiveness depends on building stronger infrastructure around founders to help ambitious companies access the networks, support, and collaboration needed to scale faster. AI is not just another technology trend. It is becoming the foundation of every industry and every economy. The Stack is not just a cool building in Amsterdam; it is core infrastructure for Europe’s sovereign AI stack, spanning from equipment and chips up to the AI application layer. 𝗘𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁.
