At KIT Campus in Amsterdam, more than 1,000 people work there every day alongside KIT staff. From social entrepreneurs and investors to cultural initiatives, museum professionals and international organisations – together they form a vibrant community centred around the 17 Sustainable Development Goals established by the United Nations. In the iconic and sustainable KIT building at Oosterpark, they meet, collaborate and work towards a more inclusive and sustainable world.
