About the Social Impact Factory's "Kauwgomballenfabriek"
The "Kauwgomballenfabriek" is the perfect flexible work space conveniently located within the ring near the A2, A9 and A10 and easily accessible by public transport. This beautiful industrial building of 1,300 m2 and three floors has plenty of space and lots of daylight. We offer flexible workplaces to individual office spaces that can also be used for team meetings and events with large groups.
The Social Impact Factory Amsterdam building is part of the larger "Kauwgomballenfabriek" complex. The name comes from the very first chewing gum factory in the Netherlands. Brothers Jules and Robert Markus started the factory in 1948 under the name 'Maple Leaf'. The name is a tribute to the Canadians who not only liberated our country, but also introduced the chewing gum product in the Netherlands. The brothers saw a lot of potential in the concept of chewing gum. Well-known brands such as Sportlife produced their chewing gum in this factory. The factory closed in 2003 after many successful years and the entire area was transformed in 2008.
This event is open to AABC members and guests. AABC members can sign up for free by visiting our website.
