  • And we're off! Last week, we said goodbye to ACE and festively welcomed Caempus. After 11 years of ACE, it’s time for a new era in which the Amsterdam startup ecosystem unites to boost the impact of academic entrepreneurs. "We are entering the third startup wave: the academics are coming," says Oscar Kneppers, CEO of Caempus. 🚀 We’re on a mission. Now, more than ever, the world craves scientific innovations.  We are working on bringing the knowledge of our institutions to guide startups through the valley of death so they can achieve greater impact.     🌊 Amsterdam startup ecosystem, let’s unite! From local initiatives by knowledge institutions to city-wide, national, and even international efforts. Our collective efforts must provide startups with effective support along their journey. Caempus is here to bridge the gap and orchestrate the process ensuring we work together seamlessly.    🔈 In the upcoming weeks, we will share more about our approach with our future initiatives: XploreX, Voyager, Caempus Fund, Caempus Calendar, and more. Stay tuned!    📅 Get ready! Our first co-creation session is coming by the end of August. We are counting on our entire ecosystem to join this session and start the academic year supporting the new wave of entrepreneurs alongside Caempus.     For now, check out some photos from last week's event and a sneak peek of a data visualization of Amsterdam's startup landscape (#wip) by Nadieh Bremer.    Thank you to everyone who joined our soft launch event! It was great to have you there!     The shift has begun!    #Caempus #Cæmpus #softlaunch #Amsterdam #AcademicEntrepreneurship #TheirSuccessIsOurSuccess

  • Last Thursday, we had an insightful conversation with Adil and Marwan about their company’s journey and recent rebranding. Formerly known as Omnia, they have officially rebranded to PLEQ!🙌🏽   The shift to PLEQ was a natural evolution driven by customer demand. In Dutch, "plek" means place, and when combined with the intelligence of sensors and software (IQ), you get PLEQ an intelligent solution for efficient space management on campus. 👏   Did you happen to know that 40% of university campus spaces are underutilized, equating to €16M in untapped potential savings annually?   PLEQ is dedicated to supporting higher education institutions in making intelligent, data-driven decisions that enhance the learning experience while cutting unnecessary costs. 🤑   Are you curious to learn more about how PLEQ can transform your campus?
