Boven de Balie is a coworking space in the center of Amsterdam. The shared office space is based on the second floor of café De Balie on the Leidseplein, right in the center of the city. The space was started in 2011 by Sander Koppelaar and Marieke Schoutsen and now houses 40 entrepreneurs and freelancers. All of them working on an Internet/online business or something related, such as design.
Office facilities
Our vibe is entrepreneurial, international and down to earth. You can rent one or a couple of desks in one of the shared spaces. The desk is yours and a personal locker is included, so you can set up a screen and leave your stuff in the office. There are various places to have meetings, so it’s easy to collaborate and receive guests. Coffee, tea, soft drinks, fruit and snacks are available for free. A network printer can be used freely and and we have the fastest Internet connection in Amsterdam with 1 GB up and down (about 50 times as fast as normal consumer connections).
Shared lunch
Each day we have a shared lunch with everyone in the office, which is a great way to get to know each other for work and fun. Mireille is in charge of groceries, setting the table and cleaning up, which makes it very efficient. Besides the shared lunch, we regularly have drinks after work or go out together.
