StartupAmsterdam Newsletter
Dearest community,

After a bit of radio silence on our side, we are finally back with a brand new update. Thank you so much for sticking with us! 

Truth be told, we realize that a lot of you will go "Oh... I'm still subscribed to this thing?" and scroll down for that "unsubscribe" button. 

BUT YOU KNOW WHAT??

Don't scroll down. Unsubscribe here if you so choose. No hard feelings 😉

But to those who want to keep the exclusive title of "StartupAmsterdam's ride-or-die",  thanks and sending you a virtual fist bump 👊🏻.

Also, from now on we're going to send out our updates on a bi-weekly basis! What can we say? There's just too much going on to cover everything in one monthly update. And we promise, the opening statement is not going to be this long...

We appreciate your readership!

Till next one,
Alexandra.
