“Almende” is an old Dutch word that can be translated into English as ‘commons’.
In pre-industrial times the commons were shared resources.
People didn’t own them individually and it wasn’t meant for companies to make money, but people had customary rights to use them for basic needs.
This spirit of collaboration and collective value shapes how we work.
Every R&D project is a partnership, combining your ideas with our technical expertise to create technical solutions that serve broader societal needs.
By joining forces with Almende, you become part of a community focused on turning ambitious concepts into technology that makes a real difference.
Our name reflects our belief that innovation should be open, practical, and impactful for everyone involved.
If you’re looking for a dedicated technology partner to bring your research or innovation project to life, Almende is ready to help.
