Creative calling cards of the Amsterdam Area. And more. Much more.

Last Thursday I officially opened the international creative portal creativeamsterdam.com about all that's creative in and around Amsterdam. As chairman of the creative board of Creative Cities Amsterdam Area, I worked my way through numerous links and buttons...the site is great if you need info on the creative calling cards of Amsterdam, the creative services, the creative companies or creative individual talent in and around Amsterdam. The meeting took place during Picnic08, a fabulous event on new media, technology and green challenges. Both Picnic and CCAA are part of 'Open CI': a search engine specific for the creative industries, developed by Amsterdam based new media organisation Mediamatic.
