2 WTC TODAY - SPRING 2016

The clocks have gone forward and spring is definitely

in the air. High time then to clear out some of the

cobwebs and that means, for us at least, a new corporate

website and MyWTC. As I write this, the design and

and site infrastructure is being developed. MyWTC

will also include a special tool we can use to alert and

update you in case of calamities, like a power cut – a

very useful addition to our communication tools.

Our plans to launch a tenants’ association are shaping

up nicely. Each (new) tenant will automatically become

a member of the association, which will act on your

behalf at meetings with WTC management and can

come up with its own ideas for improvements. And of

course, the association will be able to hold us to account

if we fail to meet our Service Level Agreement targets.

On that note, over the past few months we have put all

our service contracts out to tender again, to make sure

you get the best service for the best price. And I’m pleased

to say we have managed to negotiate some price cuts

while at the same time maintaining or even improving

our services. The price of energy is still falling as well,

and so we expect that service charges will be lower in

the coming years. More on this on page 4.

We’re also looking at ways we can help make sure

the WTC remains easy to get to when two major

infrastructural projects start this summer. The junction at

the VU university (West/S108) will be closed for around

six weeks and after that De Boelelaan East (S109) will be

under construction for around 18 months. This means

that there will be a detour and it will be harder to get to

WTC Amsterdam by car. The work has to be finished

before the realisation of the massive ZuidasDok project,

which is also going to cause significant disruption. So

we are looking for other options for parking, both in the

short and long term. It would be best, however, to use

other transport options when possible. I myself am going

to try to get here by bike one day a week.

If running, not cycling, is more your style, don’t forget

to sign up to take part in the next edition of the Zuidas

Run. The WTC is as usual a main sponsor, and this

year I’ve even managed to persuade my wife and two

daughters to take part!

SLFMD LAUNCHES SIGNATURE ART

Bespoke gentlemen’s outfitters SLFMD in the lobby of H tower is branching into art with the launch of a new platform for artists with their own, individual styles. The first show under the auspices of the SLFMDlab will open on April 21, featuring work by photographer Bastiaan

Woudt. Woudt’s work covers a complete range of subjects, from portraits to landscapes, all with his own, distinct signature. ‘We could not imag-ine a more appropriate, made-to-measure start to SLFMDlab,’ says master tailor Rafael Anton van Wezel.

Swing into spring

This spring’s lunchtime concert season has an international flavour, with musicians from Ireland and Japan as well as a French twist.On April 12, Irish flautist Emma Elkinson and her trio will be filling the central hall with traditional Irish airs. Emma is a pas-sionate and poetic player who is at home both in classical and traditional music. On May 26 there is a welcome return for Pigalle 44, who usher in the summer with their gypsy jazz sound. This concert features special guest Gert Wantenaar on button ac-cordion, who will give a French twist to the two guitars and bass ensemble. On June 21, Japanese bassoon player Haijime Konoe, who is principle bassoonist with the Dutch Radio Philharmonic Orchestra, will take centre stage. Konoe will be joined by a string trio for a virtuoso performance of music from the 18th and 19th centuries.WWW.MUSIXFOURYOU.COM

Get ready to run

WTC Amsterdam is once again proud to be gold sponsor of the annual Zuidas Run, which this year takes place on June 12. Our sponsorship means WTC tenants - either individually or as a team - can sign up for free and claim a special WTC Zuidas Run t-shirt into the bargain. Can you

beat last year’s WTC champions: Anup Bansal of Cognizant, who completed the 10 English miles in 1.00.33 and Alice Schilder of IMC who raced home in 1.15.09? Michael Page was last year’s big winner, with six separate teams! WWW.ZUIDASRUN.NL/INSCHRIJVEN-WTC

WTC Amsterdam welcomes Wijkje

Meet Wijkje Stegen, the new marketing and communications manager at WTC Amsterdam. Wijkje says further improving the conversation between the WTC and its tenants is top of her list of priorities. She’s currently developing a new website and working on making the WTC’s in-formation channels more dynamic. More on the changes in the next issue. In the meantime, feel free to drop in at the WTC offices and say hello.

A sporty seasonWTC Business Club Amsterdam has a sporty selec-tion of events lined up for this summer. On May 18, club members are invited to sign up for an ex-pert tennis coaching session with the Netherlands’ former number one doubles player Jacco Eltingh, followed by drinks and networking. Everyone, whether a beginner or experienced, is welcome but, be warned, places are limited. In July, members are invited to enjoy a VIP package at the European ath-letics championships at the Olympic Stadium. High-light of the July 7 programme is likely to be the final of the women’s 100 metres, with Dutch golden girl Dafne Schippers hot favourite to take the title.WWW.WTCAMSTERDAMBUSINESSCLUB.COM

FACILITATING THE FUTUREYou may notice some changes in the WTC services over the coming months, as part of the four-yearly shake up to make sure ten-ants get the best possible services. ‘D & B The Facility Group were the stand-out candidate for the cleaning and security, in terms of both quality and cost,’ says technical and facility director Frank Folkers, who has been deal-

ing with the various tender processes. The clear winner for the contract for maintaining the outside of the building was Ruitenheer, who used to be in charge of the windows and façade at the WTC 13 years ago. ‘I’ve been told some of the old faces are coming back,’ says Frank. Other tenders, including for pest control, are still ongoing.

OPPOSITE ATTRACTIONJos Out is the exhibiting artist in the central hall from April. Jos creates sinuous pieces from different types of stone which, she says, are inspired by polarity – the physical focus on two opposites. ‘I learn from making a statue. I am fascinated by each creative process, which

is different every time,’ she says. ‘A sculpture is shaped by removing stone. In that sense sculpture is confrontational. Every act has consequences.’ For more information, contact Art Angels, Marjo van Kleeff +31654770853, [email protected]

WHERE A RE YOU FROM?Ever wondered how international the World Trade Centre really is? We asked workers where they origi-nally hail from and how they ended up at the WTC.

INGRID BUIS AMSTERDAM EXPATCENTERI was born in Aalsmeer, just outside Amsterdam but I’ve lived in the city since I was 14 so I didn’t travel very far! I was working for the city in the tax depart-ment when I saw an intern’s job advertised. That’s how I ended up here at the Expatcenter. It’s great.

SOENIEL SEWNARAIN ELH GROUPI’m from Rotterdam. I’m here for an appointment. I have my own company and I’m here to meet some of my investors who are based in the WTC.

JORIS VAN ESCHBANK OF TOKYO-MITSUBISHI UFJ (HOLLAND) N.V.Originally I’m from North Brabant, near Eindhoven, and during the years I worked for ING and ATOS I travelled mostly through the Randstad. After that I came here. I’ve been here two and half months.

CAROLINA FONSECA LINKLATERSI’m from Portugal, Almada, near Lisbon. I usually work in Lisbon and I’m over here on se-condment. Zuidas looks like a small Manhattan, it’s very different to the rest of the city. Tourists usually visit the old centre so it’s interesting to come here and see the modern part of town.

JUSTIN I’m from Alphen aan den Rijn originally. I studied finance and invest-ments but there’s not much going on in that industry in Alphen! I spent some time in Rotterdam, but Amsterdam has Ajax!

RONALD I’m from Amsterdam. When I graduated I went on a job hunt and landed my first job here at BNY Mellon.

DIMITRI I was born in Nijmegen and raised in Greece. When we came back to the Netherlands I studied International Business & Economics. This is my third job. I worked here in the WTC before so I have a longer association with it. I’m very happy here. I live in Leiden and it’s really easy to get here on the train.

V O X P O P U L I

TAKAHIRO INOUE BANK OF TOKYO-MITSUBISHI UFJ (HOLLAND) N.V.I’m from Japan where I used to work for a bank. I married a Dutch woman in Japan and moved to the Netherlands in 2008 and found a job at a Japanese bank…because I’m Japanese! Speaking fluent Japanese was a big advantage.

IRIS VAN DAM GREENBERG NIELSENI was raised in Nieuw-Vennep, near Hoofddorp and Schiphol airport, and I now live in Haarlem. I worked here five years ago as an intern for an-other company and then, via a brother of a friend of mine, I got in touch with my current employer.

ANITA I grew up in Indonesia and we moved to Holland. I’m working at the WTC because I have a girlfriend who worked here and she introduced me.

JOHN I work for ABN Amro but I used to work for ING. I come from the south, near Den Bosch. It’s a very small village, nobody knows it! They asked me to come and work here.

JAAP Where am I from? That’s a long story. I’m not from Holland. I was born in Indo-nesia, I worked for a Brazilian company and travelled all over the world. I came back here to work for Mitsubishi Aircraft. It’s the first time in 25 years that I’ve really been back.

JOYCE I’m from Amster-dam, same story! I have the same friend. I’m very happy working here, it’s a lovely atmosphere.

RONALD I also moved from ING to ABN Amro. I am from Emmen in the north of the country.

YOSHI I’ve been here a year and was posted here from Tokyo.

Jean Paul van Marissing TEACHES GLOBAL CITIZENS

A university in an international business hub such as WTC Amsterdam? The location could really not be any better, says Webster University’s director Jean Paul van Marissing.

If you pass the Webster University offices just off the central hall during the day, you may wonder if much actually goes on there. But it is during the evening that the Webster classroom comes alive. ‘Our students mostly have jobs with the banks or other Zuidas companies,’ says the university’s director Jean Paul van Marissing. ‘They work all day and in the evening they come here to attend classes for their degree, for example a MBA de-gree or a master’s in cyber security.’Jean Paul is used to a corporate environment such as the WTC. After a spell working for the Dutch government in Brussels, he spent a number of years working for international law firms includ-ing 15 as an anti-trust lawyer at Baker & McKen-zie. Five years ago he became director of Webster University’s Dutch operations. Webster University was founded just over 100 years ago by the Sisters of Loretto and was one of the first Catholic women’s colleges west of the Mississippi River. In 1962 it opened its doors to male students for the first time, and in 1978 it opened its first European campus in Geneva, Switzerland. Webster University started up its

first Dutch operation in Leiden in 1983 and for the past 11 years, it has operated a second campus in the WTC. Webster, says Jean Paul, has always been where working professionals are and it has other campuses at business locations in the US.Although the main Dutch campus is in Leiden – less than 30 minutes away by train from Sta-tion Zuid – being in Amsterdam is an added bo-nus, says Jean Paul. ‘It is a wonderful city with a great reputation and that is why we now talk about Webster in the Netherlands.’ Crucial to the Webster way of doing things is flexibility. You

can enroll at five different times of the year, the classes are small and interaction between teacher and students is key. ‘It is an American approach,’ he says. ‘You have to prepare for your classes and you do a lot of working together with oth-ers on assignments. Our students and staff have very diverse backgrounds so it is a global learn-ing experience. You can be talking about doing business on the African continent with students from various African countries, for example. So you get a completely different sort of discussion.’An added bonus of being in the WTC is that stu-dents have instant access to a real business envi-ronment. ‘It is very easy to reach out to lots of organisations and networking events,’ says Jean Paul. ‘Networking is crucial in modern business. Of course, Webster has its own strong alumni network, but here students are exposed to other networks as well. They interact with people from a variety of industries, cultural backgrounds and business functions so the classroom becomes an ideal networking opportunity.’Jean Paul’s experiences of working as a diplomat in Brussels made him aware of the need for cul-

What makes a global citizen?

A capacity to observe

Understanding the perspective of others

Showing respect and awareness

Being flexible


tural awareness in negotiations. ‘There is a differ-ence,’ he says, ‘in the way you behave if you are Portugese or German, and that is one of Web-ster’s main missions - to create global citizens. ‘You have to be a global citizen to be successful,’ he says. ‘You have to be a good listener and to re-ally hear what people are saying. You also need to be able to observe and absorb their body lan-guage. That should also shape the way you pre-sent yourself to others. You need to have a global mindset, to have a willingness to understand the perspective of the other person and put that into context. Cultural awareness is very important. You need to show respect.’ In addition, he says, global citizens feel at home wherever they go. And they need to be flexible.Jean Paul’s own family is starting out on the right road. He has four children of his own and one step-child and the oldest boy has just completed his application to start studying for a bachelor’s degree at Webster. ‘He’s going to start in the au-tumn, but I’ve already told him that it is impor-tant to spend some time studying abroad,’ Jean Paul says.That is, perhaps, one of the other benefits of being a student at a global university – you can spend time at its campuses all over the world. Webster has offered its lectures online for the past 15 years and its library is also online, making it possible to pick up your studies wherever you may be. The MBA courses offered at the WTC are both full and part time and if you get posted abroad for a spell, you can take time off without a financial penalty. The classes all take place after 6pm and if you miss one because a business meeting over-runs, you can always catch up online later. ‘This flexibility is crucial to our success,’ says Jean Paul. ‘Webster was founded by women for working women and gave them access to higher education. Many of the people who study with us now want to advance in their careers and see an MBA as a tool to help them get that management job. But there are others who are simply inter-ested in the subject and say an MBA is something they have always wanted to do. They all have oth-er commitments. And if you get sent off to work on a project in Moscow, you can step out of the course and come back when it suits you.’

‘WEBSTER HAS ALWAYS BEEN

WHERE WORKING PROFESSIONALS ARE’

WTC REDUCES ITS WASTE MOUNTAINEarly in 2014, the WTC began a major programme to encourage tenants to separate more waste for recycling. When we started, some 38% of all the waste created within the WTC was divided into paper, glass and other recyclables. Last year, that percentage soared to 53.5%.

SAVING RESOURCESIn 2015 we reduced the amount of carbon- dioxide the WTC produced by over 81,000 kilos – all of which helps to improve air qual-ity and reduce greenhouse gases. This is the equivalent of leaving a 40 watt light bulb burning for 493 years or taking a shower for over 14,000 hours!

Over the year as a whole, the total amount of waste produced by the WTC and its tenants fell by 20 tonnes – a reduction of 8%.

ALL FIGURES X 1,000KG

AFTER COLLECTIONSo what happens to the waste we collect and send off for

recycling? A large part of it – 47% – can be reused as a raw material. Plastic coffee cups, for example, are recy-

cled into all manner of objects, from clothing (your fleece jacket) to garden furniture. Fruit and vegetable waste is

either composted or burned as biomass to produce ener-gy, which in turn helps contribute to national sustainable energy targets. In fact, just 12% of the waste produced by

the WTC and its tenants is placed in landfill sites.

Green business senseFive years ago, WTC Amsterdam became a founder member of the Green Business Club Zuidas, set up to promote greener and more sustainable ways of doing business.

In March WTC Amsterdam was one of hundreds of buildings all over the country which switched off all non-essential lights as part of Earth Hour, the annual awareness raising project organised by the World Wide Fund for Nature. It might be a simple gesture, but Earth Hour is a low threshold way for individuals and businesses to show their commitment to the planet.‘Sustainability is very important to us,’ says Christiaan Huijg, managing director of WTC Amsterdam. ‘It is extremely high on our list of priorities.’ This is one reason why WTC Amster-dam became a founding member of the Green Business Club Zuidas, set up five years ago to initiate and implement sustainable projects in Zuidas and its companies. Thirty participants have since then joined forces to make Zuidas more sustainable. ‘It makes much more sense to work towards a more sustainable future to-gether than in isolation,’ says the organisation’s Maartje Oome, ‘the more companies that join, the bigger the impact of our projects’. In 2011, WTC Amsterdam’s E tower became one of the first five buildings in the Neth-erlands to be awarded a BREEAM-NL cer-

tificate. BREEAM is an international method used to assess the sustainability of buildings. Five years on, WTC Amsterdam remains one of the most sustainable buildings in Zuidas. The building is owned by CBRE’s Dutch Office Fund, which, according to the Global Real Es-tate Sustainability Benchmark has been the most sustainable office property fund in Eu-rope for three years in a row.

PROGRESSIn fact, so much progress has been made in making the WTC greener, that Christiaan says the time for making quick wins is over. ‘We’ve done so much in the past that it will be hard to make further progress,’ says Christiaan. ‘Other sustainable projects will have serious impact on our operations and require large invest-ments. We have to look very carefully at what else we can do. ’ That is not to say the WTC is standing still. Ef-forts to reduce the complex’s carbon footprint and waste production are paying off (see info-graphic page 10), the number of charging sta-tions for electric and hybrid cars has gone up

from six to 36, and other initiatives are being planned. The soon-to-be finalised WTC ten-ants’ association will also be invited to come up with ways to make WTC Amsterdam more sustainable.

CAR SHARINGAmong the Green Business Club Zuidas initia-tives which have already involved the WTC is the setting up of a car share scheme, the Audi Shared Fleet, in an effort to cut traffic. WTC Amsterdam was also part of efforts to encour-age people to drink tap water rather than bottled water. ‘Carbon dioxide emissions for bottled water are 500 times higher than tap water,’ says Maartje. ‘And our Dutch tap water is among the best in the world.’ This year the Green Business Club Zuidas has four main focuses: realizing concrete projects; sharing expertise; setting up projects which change people’s behaviour and recruiting new members. So as a WTC Amsterdam company, if you’d like to make going green part of your corporate identity, get in touch. WWW.GREENBUSINESSCLUB.NL

ZUIDAS LIVESAmsterdam city council will this summer publish a new document outlining plans to make Zuidas a more attrac-tive and lively place to live and work. ‘If you think of the infrastructure, the offices and the like as the hardware, the Leef Zuidas project is the software side,’ says Eline Hoogendijk, programme manager at the city’s Zuidas de-partment. Locals, organisations and companies have been giving their views on how to boost Zuidas in the live-ability stakes and their ideas are being incorporated into the plan. Among the proposals: a start-up hub, fountains, more green places for children to play and a swimming pool. Contact [email protected]

Some 186 companies and organisations are now members of the Hello Zuidas organisa-tion, set up four years ago to promote Zuidas as a place to both live and do business. Top of the list of concerns at February’s members’ meeting was how to keep the area accessible when work starts on the massive Zuidasdok infrastructure project. ‘The Zuidasdok pro-ject is extremely important for accessibility in the long term,’ Pieter Litjens, city alderman in charge of transport, told the meeting of some 150 people. ‘In the meantime, measures to stimulate mobility and good communication are essential. Complaints must be taken seriously.’ A key element in keeping the area open is encouraging more people to use public transport and take the pressure off the roads. Park and ride schemes and a bike sharing system are among the ideas being developed so far. WWW.HELLOZUIDAS.NL

OFFICE SUPPLYZuidas now has some 707,800 square metres of office space, according to new research by property advisory group JLL. Of that, over one-seventh – 115,000 square metres – be-longs to the WTC. Zuidas remains the most popular place in the country to locate an of-fice, with a vacancy rate of 7.2%, less than half the national and city average. The WTC’s vacancy rate is even lower, at around 3%.

Tulip timeThe organisers of the Amsterdam tu-lip festival have planted some 500,000 bulbs for this year’s event and Zuidas is again part of the celebratory event. The festival runs throughout April. WWW.TULPFESTIVAL.COM
