New at ABF2025: Deep Dive Sessions
A brand new addition to the program during the breaks.
Amsterdam Business Forum introduces a brand-new add-on this year: 8 Deep Dives.These are 30-minute power sessions on highly specific topics every leader and entrepreneur faces.
Make the most of your 90-minute break
The ABF 2025 program includes two 90-minute breaks between the Main Stage sessions. From experience, we know attendees prefer longer, more comfortable breaks over short ones that barely allow time for a quick coffee and a bathroom stop.
Attendees use these breaks in different ways:
- Networking. Meet fellow leaders and share experiences. At ABF, we offer a dedicated group restaurant for internal networking and teambuilding, plus   “Learning Circles” for facilitated dialogues
- Relaxing and recharging. ABF is packed with energy and insights, so many participants take time to pause and reflect. For this, we even provide an Introvert   Lounge - simply sit back and relax, no social expectations attached.‍
- Getting work done. Leadership is a 24/7 responsibility. Sometimes, even on event day, you need to make that urgent call or send that crucial message. At ABF, a  Grand Café is transformed into a comfortable workspace with coffee and WiFi - everything you need
Deep Dives on 8 Topics
ABF 2025 features two rounds of 8 parallel Deep Dives:
- First break: 12:00 – 12:30
- Second break: 14:45 – 15:15
