ADB mission:
‘To share meaningful and business-related information amongst the Dutch business community in Singapore, whilst networking in a fun environment’

Welcome to the ADB

ADB, Your key to the Singapore business community!

The "Association of Dutch Businessmen in Singapore" is THE business organization for men and woman, living and working in Singapore with the ability to speak Dutch. Every month the members convene after working hours to share their thoughts and experiences over a drink. This get-together is followed by a presentation, forum discussion, or company visit.

The ADB was formally established in November 1990. Several Dutch businessmen in Singapore were of the view that communication, understanding and, where possible, cooperation among Dutch businessmen and women could be much improved. Accordingly, it was felt that a business association had to be established and presently the ADB counts approximately 450 members (all natural persons rather than companies).

The members represent all layers of Dutch business activities in Singapore: from director to entrepreneur, from researcher to trainee, from legal advisor to sales manager. All share a common interest in the business environment of Singapore and its surrounding countries.

The ADB does not contemplate to be a Chamber of Commerce or a trade institution, seeking to formally represent the interests of Dutch business in Singapore. The ADB, however, constitutes a platform for Dutch businessmen to share their thoughts and experiences. Thus the ADB provides an easy and friendly entrance to the Singapore business community.
