Best relationship,
We cordially invite you to attend the announcement event of H20 Campus - Europe's largest Esports & Gaming Hub on Wednesday 29 May from 16.00 to 18.00 at Spinnekop 1 in Purmerend.
Date: Wednesday, 29 May, from 16:00 to 18:00
Location: Spinnekop 1, Purmerend
The former school building and sports hall [Regio College and De Koogmolen] in Purmerend will be converted and open its doors in the autumn for what is to become 'the Papendal for Esports & Gaming'.
This is an exclusive introduction moment for press and partners to get acquainted with the H20 concept, visit the campus (under reconstruction) and engage in a conversation with initiators, esports players and partners. Various parties from the games industry will be present to confirm how they see H20 and why it will be a place for 'Developing the Next Generation via Esports & Gaming'.

Dirk Tuip - founder

Dirk Tuip, former athlete, CEO of startup FacilityApps and one of the founders of H20, explains: "With H20 Campus we are realising a dream we have been working on for years. H20 will be a platform for Developing the Next Generation through gaming, esports and creative tech. Esports is a strong growth market with which youth and young adults feel strongly connected. With H20 Campus we bring worlds together and explicitly connect with training and education. Gamers, esporters and influencers are the developers of the future. During the reception on 29 May, we will explain our plans in detail."

Mario Hegger - alderman of the municipality of Purmerend

Purmerend alderman Mario Hegger: "With the arrival of the H20 Campus, Purmerend, as a centrally located town within the Amsterdam metropolitan region, will become the magnet for gaming and the technology of the future. This will open doors to major economic opportunities and tap into new markets and talents. I also think it's important that H20 starts a dialogue with young people about responsible online behaviour. It is also good to see that attention is being paid to the new trend of combining gaming and physical exercise. From all these social and economic angles, we see great opportunities and are therefore happy to support H20."
