About the Green

img_06322We are in uncertain times. The bubble that we have happily lived in for the last number of years has burst and the air is slowly dissipating. Rather than complain, it is best to see this time as one of opportunity and business. Rotterdam’s spirit of rolling up the shirt sleeves and working hard needs to be praised, and added to by new business principles and modern thinking.

The Green is a community of pioneers of this new age. A catalysing influence that can make waves that induce a difference in Rotterdam and the wider world.

Who are we?
Green is the colour of the arms of Rotterdam. Green is the principal colour of our continent. We are The Green.. A group of forward thinkers and visionary entrepeneurs with binding interests in innovation, sustainability and technology.

With the now 12 ambassadors - Keith Wallace (DeInvesteerdersClub), Jacq van der Steen (SteffiSearch), Ruben Kruit (DLMA), Frans-Anton van Gils (MetrixLab), Michael Pentowski (Lunatech Ventures), Edgar Neo (HeartCore), Robert van Geldrop (Backup Agent), Vincent Hooplot (Robeco), Arno Vis (Hosting Concepts), Ronald Mannak (1UpToys), Sander Waterval (Connect-IT) and Mark Rooijens (Cipix Internet) - we invest our spare time in exchanging ideas by organizing round table / panel discussions and knowledge events.
