The IN Amsterdam Partnership Programme was created to connect businesses with the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area’s international community they serve. As an official IN Amsterdam partner, your organisation is marked out as a trusted service provider for English-speaking residents.
About the Partnership Programme
The Partnership Programme allows IN Amsterdam to refer internationals to a reliable network of service providers that support the international community. From relocation agencies, utilities, and recruitment through banking, insurance, tax, and financial advisers all the way to childcare, education consultants, and language courses, IN Amsterdam partners help internationals with all parts of life in the Amsterdam Area. This is particularly useful just prior to a newcomer’s arrival and within their first three months in the Netherlands.
A referral to an IN Amsterdam partner works like a personal recommendation and is just as valuable.
