The HVL offers a lively co-working space with workplaces and offices in a great location in the city centre. Would you like to book a space at the Humanities Venture Lab? Then fill in the form below.

You can enter into a user agreement for the co-working space or an office if:  

• you are a student, staff member or alumnus of the University of Amsterdam (UvA),  
• your studies or ventures are related to the humanities,  
• you actively use the space and that you actively participate in the community, and; 
• you are an active HVL member. 

You can register at any time by e-mailing to humanitiesventurelab@uva.nl. If there is no availability, you will be placed on the waiting list. 

In an introductory meeting, we assess your needs and create a plan with concrete goals. Through personalized one-on-one sessions, we track your progress and address challenges. Every session is tailored to your specific wants and needs. 

Our experienced business coach, Marine, provides practical, hands-on tools to help you continue independently. You’ll have a safe space to share your ideas and receive accountability coaching – someone to push you out of your comfort zone and keep you on track. 

We combine personal and professional development because we believe real impact starts with self-awareness. How you manage your life, reflects on how you run your business. This approach helps you build sustainable practices and maintain a healthy work-life balance. 

Requirements

To participate in our business coaching, you need to be a member of HVL or a student of the University of Amsterdam. This opportunity is open to everyone, regardless of your experience or the stage of your idea. We also help you explore whether entrepreneurship is the right next step for you.
