TNW, Oneflow, and Flexas are organizing a complimentary networking evening in Amsterdam.

      A speaker panel, food, and an audience eager to make connections. This gathering is set for 3 June at Flexas.com in the city center.

      There’s a unique kind of fatigue that follows attending a poorly organized networking event. You know the type: a vast venue, a cash bar, and nametags that nobody bothers to read.

      You spend an hour and a half engaging in polite conversations with people you won’t remember, ultimately leaving with the thought that responding to emails might have been a better use of your time.

      The TNW, Oneflow & Flexas Gathering Amsterdam, scheduled for the evening of 3 June 2026 at Flexas.com on Weesperstraat, is designed to break this mold.

      The essence of EU tech: The latest developments from the EU tech landscape, insights from our experienced founder Boris, and some dubious AI-generated art. It’s free and delivered to your inbox weekly. Sign up now! The format is straightforward, which likely contributes to its effectiveness. Doors open at 4:30 PM, with food and drinks available from 5 PM. An hour later, a speaker panel will take the stage, running until 7:30 PM, and then informal discussions will continue until 9 PM. Attendance is free.

      Why the different approach?

      For nearly two decades, TNW has been at the heart of Amsterdam's tech scene. The TNW Conference, the flagship annual event held each June, attracts thousands of founders, investors, and executives to the city. However, the conference is a large, orchestrated event.

      The gathering on 3 June is intended to be smaller and more focused: one evening in one room, with a collective goal of meeting the right individuals. Co-hosting the event with TNW are Oneflow, the Stockholm-based contract management platform, and Flexas.com, the Amsterdam-based flexible workspace provider hosting the evening at its Weesperstraat location.

      Oneflow is known for digitizing the complete contract lifecycle, from creation and collaboration to e-signing and post-signature management, integrating with existing tools used by sales and legal teams, such as Salesforce, HubSpot, and Microsoft Dynamics.

      Together, these three organizations signify the type of audience the gathering aims to attract: professionals who thoughtfully consider how businesses operate.

      The speakers panel

      The highlight of the evening is a panel discussion from 6 PM to 7:30 PM. Speaker details will be confirmed as the date approaches, but the format fosters genuine dialogue rather than scripted speeches. It features a moderated panel followed by an open floor, allowing for intimate conversations that can be heard in a space small enough for meaningful exchanges.

      TNW has experience in this arena. The Road to TNW series, community-driven events leading up to the main conference, consistently draws a mix of founders, investors, and ecosystem builders seeking something more impactful than a typical networking event.

      Similarly, the gathering on 3 June will embody this spirit.

      Who should attend?

      The event targets founders, sales leaders, operators, and anyone involved in building or scaling a business in the Amsterdam area. With Oneflow focusing on contract workflows and business process automation, there’s a natural appeal for professionals in sales, legal, HR, and operations, but the TNW network is broad enough to ensure a diverse audience.

      The choice of venue is also significant. Flexas.com on Weesperstraat is among Amsterdam’s well-regarded flexible workspace providers, conveniently accessible by public transport and located close to the city center, minimizing any additional commute for your evening out.
