It is known that the Netherlands is a startup hotbed. The country is home for many innovative tech startups and that doesn’t leave the VR aka Virtual Reality startups. Most of the startups that have their roots in the country are founded by local entrepreneurs but the trend is gradually changing as the Netherlands is becoming an epicenter for foreign investments.

One of the reasons is the co-working space trend that is progressing rapidly in the country. Notably, Amsterdam has an array of notable options including WeWork and Spaces. And, there are nascent co-working spaces such as VR Base dedicated to the VR companies.
