The Best Co-Working Spaces in Amsterdam

Tom Coggins

Finding somewhere suitable to work can be tough if you’re starting out as a freelancer, especially if you’ve just moved to a new city. Fortunately in Amsterdam there are many excellent co-working spaces offering a wide range of services and packages for start-ups, small businesses and entrepreneurs.

WeWork

WeWork is a global project that creates co-working spaces in cities around the world. The company has two locations in Amsterdam which provide working environments for smaller businesses. There’s a wide range of features at either location including high-speed internet, conference rooms and communal lounge areas. WeWork also organises social events throughout the month that allow clients to meet other like-minded professionals and potential colleagues.
