An Evening Cruise On Board De Titaan, Amsterdam

The Netherlands has a vibrant community of IT and

Telecom firms based in Amsterdam, and are competitive employers who make a significant

contribution to the sector - a natural choice for Darwin in which to base an office and for holding conversations

with firms about how they are managing their technology talent.

...What better way to talk than over an evening cruise

on board De Titaan – a tall ship with a difference...

Against stormy weather conditions we asked firms based in Amsterdam how willing they are to migrate

skilled workers and what kind of work flexibility options were on offer.
