The development of Amaliakwartier
In this session, we would like to take you through the area development of Amaliakwartier, one of Apeldoorn’s strategic development areas. What makes this location unique is the presence of the world-famous Hertzberger building, for many years the headquarters of Centraal Beheer.
The development of Amaliakwartier calls for a fresh area identity, fitting for its location next to Catharina-Amaliapark and the ambition to strengthen the connection between the area, the station and the city centre. Here, architectural heritage, living, working and staying come together.
Our city-planning professional Jaap Graber will passionately tell you about the future of this special urban district and the opportunities for a coherent, high-quality area development. Join the discussion with us on how we will develop this place step by step into a vibrant and connected part of the city.

Not a man of one company, but a man of movements. His strength? Not shouting from the sidelines, but starting new companies himself that set the market in motion and challenge existing systems. That's how the jury of the PROVADA Inspiration Award 2026 describes winner Michel Baars. 'Michel gives direction to our entire construction and real estate sector.'

For three days, the real estate sector stood shoulder to shoulder at RAI Amsterdam. With a record number of visitors, a packed programme and plenty of energy, PROVADA 2026 was an edition to remember. Below, we look back at the highlights — and at the end you'll find the photos and aftermovie to relive it all.

At PROVADA 2026, the PROVADA Inspiration Award 2026 was presented to Michel Baars. The award is presented annually to an individual who realises sustainable change within the built environment through vision, courage and decisiveness. This year's presentation marks the award's fifth edition.
