RAI Amsterdam

🎧 Our CEO Paul Riemens PhD, MSc recently featured on a podcast where he delved into the vision and leadership driving the success of ADW - Connecting Air Mobility Worldwide. In the conversation, he reflected on his journey from global roles at LVNL to leading RAI Amsterdam through a significant (digital) transformation, aligning our portfolio with key sectors and the global goals. As the architect behind ADW, he discussed how this event has become a pivotal platform for advancing air mobility innovation. With a commitment to sustainability and societal impact, he’s spearheading initiatives that position RAI Amsterdam as a value-based connector, not just for the city, but for the global community. His leadership philosophy? "Leadership is a marathon, not a sprint. By doing, we learn, listen, and become better at navigating the unknown," he shared during the podcast. Tune in to hear more about his vision for the future of RAI Amsterdam and the exciting developments ahead (the podcast is in Dutch). 🎧  https://lnkd.in/e_nAeraG #RAIAmsterdam #AmsterdamDroneWeek #Leadership #Innovation #Sustainability

From 5 to 9 August, the RAI Amsterdam will host the International Association for the Study of Pain 2024 World Congress, welcoming thousands of international pain experts. Unique to this edition, free activities for residents will include dance workshops, art tours, and comedy shows to raise awareness about pain management. 📅 This congress, featuring Nobel Prize winners Ardem Patapoutian and David Julius as speakers, promotes the exchange and collaboration among researchers, doctors, healthcare providers and policymakers worldwide from various pain disciplines. 🏃♂️In support of the IASP, a Local Advisory Committee (LAC) has been established for the World Congress on Pain. The Amsterdam Convention Bureau (ACB) has asked them to collaborate - in line with IASP’s mission ‘together to alleviate pain’, to bring the knowledge from the congress to the residents of Amsterdam. This ensures that not only the hospitality industry, hotels, and congress visitors (researchers and healthcare professionals) benefit from the IASP congress, but also the residents experience a positive impact. #Houseofevents #pain #RAIAmsterdam 🏆 This year IASP celebrates it's 50th anniversary with reflections on industry advances in pain research and IASP milestones over the last 50 years.

At RAI Amsterdam everything revolves around knowledge, innovation, communities, and ecosystems. We invest intensively in our substantive networks, both for our own events and for third-party exhibitions and conferences.

Together we look carefully at the objectives of the event and the profile of the visitors. The added value we deliver is largely in our enormous network." Annette Bos, Director of Markets, adds: "We have contact with many parties in the sectors in which we are active. As a result, we are close to developments in the market, we see opportunities at an early stage, and we can connect relevant networks. In this way, we create synergy and added value."
