Sail Circular
The events industry is committed to a progressive evolution, aiming to accelerate innovations focused on addressing key urban challenges. In this pursuit, SAIL 2025 serves as an exemplar of innovation and an embodiment of future visions. Events are considered catalysts in the societal transition towards sustainability.
SAIL Amsterdam collaborates closely with a wide range of partners, including technology companies, sustainability organizations, urban planners, architects, and research institutes, to push the boundaries of what is possible and realize a sustainable future.
The expedition begins by exploring the challenges facing modern cities. Major urban issues such as climate change, mobility, and social inclusion are scrutinized. SAIL Amsterdam's partners bring together their expertise, innovative ideas, and technological ingenuity to find creative solutions to these complex problems.

Here, young people from different educational levels and backgrounds collaborate to conduct interdisciplinary and multilevel research. Students are given the opportunity to develop teamwork skills and establish professional relationships while the project is tested in society.
