Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Metropolitan Solutions - AMS Institute 3.6

Situated at the nexus between industry, government and academia, AMS Institute is an ambitious
international institute at the forefront of ideas. Engaging and developing the latest technology and science with research, experiments and projects in the city of Amsterdam, we take on the challenges posed by a world that is rapidly urbanizing.

Focusing on urban themes such as water, energy, waste, food, data and mobility, we go beyond developing a deep understanding of cities by initiating and facilitating research projects that connect different parties, create practical solutions, generate business activity and produce workable plans.

Varying from massive applied research like Roboat (budget: €25 million) to smaller initiatives as the Healthy Urban Route Planner (budget: €50.000) AMS Institute is involved in over 40 projects that focus on securing a vital, circular and connected city. Now and in the future.

AMS Institute is a public-private institute founded by: Massachusetts Institute of Technology,
Wageningen University & Research and Delft University of Technology, Shell, European Space Agency, Accenture, IBM, Port of Amsterdam, Cisco, Waternet, Alliander and KPN.
The City of Amsterdam is in full support of the institute.
