The AMS startup Booster focuses on early-stage startups that want to make an impact on city life and solve metropolitan challenges. The pilot of the AMS Startup Booster started in October. Unfortunately, everything had to be digital but even with these constraints the startups have succeeded in taking their business to the next level. We are proud of these 7 selected startups. During this Demo Day they will pitch their various innovative projects and show you the endless possibilities for Amsterdam and cities worldwide.
The 7 amazing startups are:
- Asset Hub: An objective and efficient solution to measure and monitor cracks in masonry buildings and quay walls.
- City Analytics: A crowd monitoring platform providing real-time information about the pedestrian flows in urban spaces.
- Container Collectief: A traveling hybrid design agency that will provide solutions for and with the neighborhood.
- Meli: A mobile app that helps curious travellers uncover any monument’s story on the spot.
- Mublio: A digital design and manufacturing solution to provide beautiful, space-saving interiors.
- Muuras: Living walls with wetland flower species that filter wastewater for in-building reuse.
- Swugo: A service that transforms any regular bicycle into an electric bike.
