The Club of Amsterdam
is an independent, international, future-oriented think tank involved
in channeling preferred futures. It involves those who dare to
think out of the box and those who don't just talk about the future
but actively participate in shaping outcomes.
We organize events, seminars and summits on relevant issues and publish
findings & proceedings through various off-line and online media channels.
Our goal is to become a global player and catalyst for innovation in
industries, science and society.
The Club of Amsterdam is a not-for-profit foundation registered in the
Netherlands.
