WELCOME to

To all Breakbulk visitors to Rotterdam, returnees and first timers alike, Welcome to Rotterdam, a city like no other.

From a heartless city to a city at the heart of the European economy, Rotterdam is the city where people take pride in a hands-on mentality, in perseverance and in working hard.

But Rotterdam is much more than a city of roughnecks and hard workers.

Here, you will find culture alongside hard labour, a lively nightlife alongside manufacturing industry and architecture alongside infrastructure. Rotterdam is for everyone. And in Rotterdam, everything is possible. This is the city that beats to the rhythm of the hearts of its inhabitants.

Rotterdam has also become a city of culinary and cultural delights. On the banks of the Maas, you will find dishes from all corners of the world.

From a quick snack in multicultural suburbs to star-rated dishes with panoramic views of the magnificent skyline. The museums are among the very best both in terms of premises and collections and when it comes to hosting international events, Rotterdam is the place to be.

The water of the River Maas cuts right through the city. The river is of great symbolic value: at the foot of the bridges over the river, the marines held out for days against the German invasion. The intransigence of the armed forces speaks volumes. The people of Rotterdam, or Rotterdammers, are not easily intimidated and do not give up. Adversity hardens us. That is why the city’s motto is ‘stronger through battle’.

We are building the city with an eye to the future, and water has played a major role in this since time immemorial. Rotterdam and the Maas are a double entity: water brings work. Here lies the largest port outside Asia, a port that serves as an artery for the European hinterland and is of vital importance to millions

of people and to the economy of the entire European Union.

Rotterdammers are a proud people. And rightly so. The city is bustling and thriving, it breathes and moves to the rhythm of its inhabitants. The people make the city and they are proud to show it to anyone who passes by and takes the time to stop, look around and feel what makes this city what it is: A breeding ground of perseverance and fighting spirit, a place to which people from all parts of the world have lost their hearts.

It is a place where they can be whoever they want to be, because in the streets of this city, everyone is above all a Rotterdammer.

ROTTERDAM Dear participants of Breakbulk Europe 2022,

Welcome to Breakbulk Europe 2022 and welcome to Rotterdam, the maritime capital of Europe.

It’s a great milestone in our breakbulk ambition and we are very proud that Breakbulk Europe has chosen Rotterdam as its new location!

DANNY LEVENSWAARD Director Breakbulk, Port of Rotterdam Authority

Rotterdam is known for its specialism and versatility in the breakbulk sector, with strong representations of both steel, nonferrous, forest products, as well as heavy lift and project cargo.

As the largest seaport in Europe, we pride ourselves on the fact that no ship or cargo is too deep or too big for us. We can and will handle anything.

Our terminals and dedicated service providers, who are 24/7 operational, ensure that breakbulk can be processed at any time of day.

With the largest fleet of floating cranes in Europe and our highlydeveloped hinterland connections, the port of Rotterdam is the breakbulk port in Europe.

That is why our Rotterdam slogan is: ‘Bigger. Better. Breakbulk.’ and we surely wish you to become part of it.

We look forward to meeting you!

INNOVATION AND SUSTAINABILITY ENSURE FUTURE GROWTH Building the port of tomorrow is not just about having the right tools and solutions. It’s also about creating the right atmosphere. It’s about attracting new talent and businesses and connecting them with each other and with the rest of the port.

To make that happen, we are working with RDM Rotterdam. Innovation Dock is a port innovation hub where entrepreneurship and education meet in a dynamic maritime test and production environment.

The open structure allows for cross-pollination between the various companies, start-ups and education.

BIGGER. BETTER. BREAKBULK. Rotterdam is known for its specialism and versatility in the breakbulk sector Equally important to the breakbulk business at the port is Rotterdam’s breakbulk community. Members from the entire breakbulk supply chain work together, from shippers and carriers to the terminals, forwarders, service providers and agencies. Every link in the chain is crucial, and together they strengthen each other, acting together to put the port even more firmly on the map and promote the sector and recruit business.

THE FUTURE ANCHORS

HERE. As Breakbulk Europe’s Content Team’s agenda for the 2022 event will focus heavily on innovation and discovery, we’ve certainly come to the right place: Rotterdam.

The Rotterdam Makers District will be a key focus of the Breakbulk content team for its first event at Rotterdam Ahoy. Developed by the Municipality of Rotterdam and the Port of Rotterdam Authority, the district comprises RDM Rotterdam, or RDM, and MerweVierhavens, or M4H, and is the place in the region for the innovative manufacturing industry.

A recent Breakbulk tour of the district witnessed the progress of innovative, sustainable projects by students and start-up companies, covering 3D printing of propellors to enable ships to be fixed out at sea, 3D printing of coral reef to replace the historical damage in our oceans, floor tiles that capture energy and are made using 50 percent of plastic from ocean clean-up programs, as well as wind turbines suitably sized for ships and residential areas.

“We are looking forward to hosting some of these start-up projects at our Discovery Zone at Breakbulk Europe in May as well as the students who will be participating in our Education Day,” said Victoria Pope, Breakbulk’s head of content.

Breakbulk recently caught up with the Port of Rotterdam Authority to talk about the district.

Breakbulk Europe 2022: Rotterdam Visitors Guide 9

Q: How can an entrepreneur approach RDM and M4H, can you include us in that process?

Entrepreneurs who are already established in the Rotterdam Makers District can contact the program office and use our community platform ‘Inside’; where supply and demand from all companies in the Makers District, and our partners in the innovation ecosystem come together. For (new) initiatives and parties that fit within our strategic priorities – energy, mobility, circularity, and the built environment – we are constantly looking for suitable development opportunities and real estate locations in the area. This is custom work and contact is made via info@rotterdammakersdistrict.com, all applications are assessed by a sales and initiative team.

Q: Can you give examples where exploration and experimentation at RDM has led to real industry solutions?

Initiatives from incubator and accelerator programs, such as PortXL, YES!Delft, and from the innovation ecosystem of the Municipality and Port of Rotterdam Authority, develop and test prototypes at RDM, grow and move to M4H to scale up. For instance, at RDM, RAMLAB is testing techniques in 3D printing here for efficient production and logistics of spare parts for ships, in the Innovation Dock, XLabs works with robotization on offshore wind farms, and in the Loft, RDM Next helps SMEs to seize the opportunities that digitization brings.

Q: Do M4H and RDM have distinct roles? If so, how does the uniqueness of each area show itself?

Companies can experiment with new products or processes in the Rotterdam Makers District. New technologies are devised, tested, and applied.

10 Breakbulk Europe 2022: Rotterdam Visitors Guide

These innovative technologies are based on digitalization, robotization, additive manufacturing, and on the application of new, sustainable energy and materials.

This makes the Makers District a testing ground and showcase for the new economy – visible to everyone.

RDM is a hotspot for innovation in the port, where start-ups, corporations, and education work together. The Municipality and the Port Authority want to develop M4H into an innovative environment to live and work, optimally equipped for the innovative manufacturing industry and with a mix of working, living, culture, catering, sports, and education. Together they form an energetic district with an impact on both city and port.

Q: Can you tell us how RDM works directly with the local educational institutions? Can you tell us something about the Erasmus Center and how it has developed and examples of success stories there?

The added value of the Makers District is not only in the physical space, but also in a business climate that stimulates and strengthens collaboration and entrepreneurship. Cooperation with knowledge and educational institutions in the region is crucial.

RDM is founded by the Port of Rotterdam Authority in collaboration with Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences and Technology College, with the aim of creating an inspiring environment for technology education, because working with the latest

transshipment of fruit, now offer space for initiatives and entrepreneurs working on energy transition, new forms of mobility and circularity.

These monuments make the area recognizable and special, a positive distinguishing factor.

The presence of knowledge institutions and education throughout the Makers District provides a context-rich learning environment and thus contributes to the innovation environment.

The Erasmus Center for Entrepreneurship, located in the Science Tower, also plays an important connecting role.

Q: As versatile as the Makers District seems, how will the area build and maintain an ideal work-life balance?

The aim is to create a community of successful and innovative entrepreneurs, integrated into the wider regional innovation ecosystem of companies, knowledge institutions and funding sources.

Q: It is an intriguing aspect in which the past of the area becomes monuments for future generations, such as Ferro, the Citrus facilities and the piers and basins for events.

We are building on the remnants of the past; it is fertile ground for innovation. We try to learn from history and tap into the unique, distinctive qualities that remind us. The remnants of the extraction of fossil energy, such as the Ferro gas holder, and the monumental Rotterdam Citrus Auction as a symbol for the storage and

M4H is an area in transition from a former port and industrial area to a new, energetic district to live, work and learn. The M4H spatial framework, established in 2019 by the Port Authority and the Municipality of Rotterdam, outlines what M4H will look like in the future.

Each sub-area has its own ratio between living, working, and learning, which gives the area its own character. This character varies from a greater focus on housing, combined with (limited) workspace and studios, to the sub-area Galileïpark with room for scale-ups and housing and facilities for larger manufacturing companies.

The Rotterdam Makers District is developing into a lively area with a wide range of amenities, living, learning, culture, and events.

A City Innovating For A Sustainable Tomorrow

Rotterdam is a city that embraces innovation – it is part of its DNA. The city was forced to rebuild after the destruction of World War II, breaking with the past and opting for new forms of urban design; an architecture based on the principles of light, air and space. Walking the city, that ground-breaking, creative spirit can still be keenly felt. As we build towards a sustainable future, Rotterdam’s proud tradition for innovation is evident everywhere you look.

ROTTER Rotterdam’s vibrant food scene is rooted in a rich tapestry of culture.

The city’s lively and diverse range of dining options means choosing where to eat can be a challenge! You could go to Deliplein in Katendrecht, where some of Rotterdam’s best restaurants are found on just one street, or maybe visit the Industrial Building, where you could dine at the classy Héroine or one of its excellent pizzerias. You could explore one of the city’s must-see neighbourhoods to discover where locals wine and dine, or instead opt for a Bike & Bite Food Tour, with savvy guides keen to point out their favourite foodie haunts. Whatever you choose, be sure to pop into the Fenix Food Factory for local fresh delicacies such as farm cheese, home-brewed beer and delicious vegan dishes.

ROTTERDAM:

THE COUNTRY’S

NIGHTLIFE NIGHTLIFE NIGHTLIFE CAPITAL Rotterdam has long been the country’s nightlife capital, with people coming from all corners to get a taste of the city’s vibrant club scene. Like so much else in Rotterdam – the architecture, the people, their cultures and customs – the city’s nightlife is filled with contrasts. Popular venues such as Perron, Annabel, Toffler and Now&Wow can often be found in the most unexpected locations.

Whether you want to dance all night, grab a cold beer with friends or listen to some cool jazz, everything is possible in Rotterdam.

WITTE DE WITHSTRAAT

en.rotterdam.info/locations/witte-de-withkwartier-en

A new nightlife hub is rapidly emerging around Rotterdam Central Station, with the new Luchtsingel pedestrian bridge revitalizing a onceforgotten neighbourhood. From jazz club BIRD under the Hofbogen, you can stroll down to the pop stage at Annabel and the outdoor Biergarten for a great night out.

INSTAGRAMMABLE Spots in Rotterdam

We are Lois and Naomi, two adventurous travellers. Follow them on Instagram @travander.nl. Our mission is let’s travel and wander, so we are always on the lookout for unspoilt and authentic places. Rotterdam is constantly developing as a city, and architectural eye-catchers appear in rapid succession.

This makes Rotterdam an ideal environment for photophiles, who will always find ample opportunity for taking brilliant photos. If you are curious about Rotterdam’s finest photo locations, please check out our favourite Instagramworthy spots!

THE CUBE HOUSES

The Cube Houses are a veritable masterpiece from architect Piet Blom. An iconic Rotterdam image for more than 30 years now, the Cube Houses are famous worldwide.

THE MARKTHAL

Straight across from the Cube Houses you will find another genuine Rotterdam icon: the Markthal. This spectacular building is situated in a prominent position across from Blaak Station, and can be identified by its typically Rotterdam-style architecture.

THE ERASMUS BRIDGE FROM DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES

One of the hidden Instagram spots we have discovered recently is the site pictured here. From this perspective you can capture the Erasmus Bridge from below, which makes for a unique image.

You will have to lie on the ground to take this photo, but the result is definitely worth the effort!

BOIJMANS VAN BEUNINGEN DEPOT

Since autumn 2021, this architectural masterpiece has been fully devoted to housing the art collection of the Boijmans Van Beuningen Museum. The 40m-high roof of the mirrored building features a roof garden which commands a panoramic view of the city and its port.

BOIJMANS VAN BEUNINGEN DEPOT

THE EUROMAST

The Euromast is a sight well-known to almost everybody. The highest building in Rotterdam, and incidentally also the tallest observation tower in the Netherlands, it is a household name in the city. Standing on the viewing platform at the top of the Euromast, you will have a splendid view of the Rotterdam skyline and can take marvellous photos from the park.

ERASMUS BRIDGE THE EUROMAST

THE HOFBOGEN

THE HOFBOGEN

The environment surrounding The Hofbogen is popular with Rotterdam residents, and yet this Rotterdam highlight is not as well-known as it might be. The Hofbogen viaduct park is situated on the roof of the former Hofplein Station, from which trains once plied between Rotterdam and Scheveningen for a century. There are several photohotspots here, including the bright yellow Luchtsingel, a wooden pedestrian bridge with a length of 390m. This very noticeable eye-catcher is also a popular Instagram spot in Rotterdam.

HISTORICAL DELFSHAVEN

OLD HARBOUR

WATERTAXI

HISTORIC DELFSHAVEN

The Old Dutch harbour in Historic Delfshaven is almost completely unknown to those not living in Rotterdam. That is a pity, because this splendid Rotterdam site with its picturesque marina of Historic Delfshaven also has a story to tell. The Piet Heynsbrug is perhaps the most eye-catching feature.

OLD HARBOUR

Located near the Markthal and the Cube Houses is yet another wonderful highlight: the Old Harbour.

This is one of the oldest harbours in the city, and is surrounded by the intriguing amalgam of historic buildings and modern architecture typical of Rotterdam. For the most attractive view, walk to the Spanjaardsbrug, which commands a splendid panoramic view of the entire Old Harbour.

WATERTAXI JETTY 30

Watertaxi is another of Rotterdam’s spectacular attractions. A trip on a Watertaxi is guaranteed to give you the finest view of Rotterdam and its skyline, and also makes the differences between the historic and modern harbours clearly visible.

TIPPING IN ROTTERDAM

For Visitors Visitors can visit ticketmaster at ticketmaster.nl/ search?keyword=parkeerticket%20breakbulk and reserve paid parking in advance of the show.

VICTORIA POPE Head of Content Breakbulk and CWIEME “When flying into Schiphol Airport, the Intercity Direct Train takes only 28 minutes into Rotterdam Centraal, and the Metro is sooooo simple to use from there–just four stops to Wilhelminaplein (closest to Port of Rotterdam Authority building) and a further three stops to Zudplein (closest to Ahoy)– all on the same line!”

Register at europe.breakbulk.com

At a restaurant, if you received good service or thoroughly enjoyed the food, it’s customary to give a small tip–around 5-10 percent of the bill. If your service was just average, round up the bill or leave some change.

In a bar, you may already be feeling a little generous, but it’s not expected to tip per drink in the Netherlands. Instead, if you’re running a tab, you may like to round up the bill at the end of the night. Alternatively, throw a few coins in a tip jar— your bartender will appreciate it!

Dutch taxis are already expensive due to high gas prices and taxes, so drivers don’t expect tips, but you can round up the bill or tip one or two euros if you like.

And yes, Uber is available in Rotterdam.
