AIsland: The perfect setting for two days of deep diving

This urban island, situated in the heart of the city and surrounded by the Nieuwe Maas River, is known for its historic architecture and vibrant community. Noordereiland blends tranquility with city life, offering charming streets and easy access to Rotterdam's center. It is a hidden gem, providing the perfect setting for deep dives into the disruptive impact of AI for leaders around the world.

Fuse history and innovation at the Hulstkamp building

The Vistage EMEA AIsland Summit takes place in Rotterdam’s historic Hulstkamp building, an iconic pre-war monument that embodies the city’s dynamic mixture of modern architecture and cultural heritage. Constructed in 1888 in the Dutch Neo-Renaissance style, the Hulstkamp was one of very few buildings that remained undamaged during the Rotterdam bombings of World War II. Located on an artificial island in the Maas River, the Hulstkamp symbolizes the power of innovation to create new spaces. Join us on our journey from this artificial island towards new horizons in the world of AI.
