Amsterdam has been chosen as European capital of innovation in the annual iCapital competition organised by the European Commission.
Amsterdam was recognised for its good start-up climate and its sharing economy, as well as the way city officials approach innovation issues.
The prize brings with it €950,000 to be used on further boosting innovation. Berlin, Paris, Milan and Eindhoven were among the other eight finalists.
