Just a few hours ago, the bass was shaking these walls. Lights were flashing, DJs were playing, and the dance floor was packed with people partying through the night.
A few hours later?
Beautifully set tables, a delicious lunch, and entrepreneurs sharing stories and making new connections.
Same location. Completely different energy. What a contrast!
Today, we visited Lofi & LIEF Amsterdam with FCN, right in the heart of Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE).
What incredible venues. And what an impressive entrepreneurial story!
We had a fascinating presentation about how these businesses have evolved since 2019. From spectacular parties with DJs and light shows to dinners, corporate events and networking gatherings.
They do it all. And the venues are practically running 24/7!
While enjoying lunch, exchanging stories and meeting fellow entrepreneurs, I couldn’t help wondering:
What did this place look like last night? And what’s going to happen here tonight?
During ADE, Amsterdam turns into one huge festival, with hundreds of parties taking place across the city. And dozens of them happen at these venues alone!
What fascinates me most is how you can use exactly the same square metres to bring together completely different people, experiences and business models.
Business by day. Party by night. And somehow, the whole operation keeps running.
Now that’s entrepreneurship!
What they’ve built since 2019 is truly impressive. Definitely worth checking out!
And I have to admit, I’m getting a little tempted to join the party myself. 🙂
So, who has a great recommendation for an ADE party over the next few days?
Ideally somewhere you can meet interesting entrepreneurs, do a little networking and have just as much fun without alcohol.
