Organization

Kazerne has multiple objectives. For this reason, two organizations are involved in intensive collaboration for the realization of the total concept.

• program foundation Kazerne Foundation, ANBI;
• exploitation organization Kazerne BV.

The overall concept of Kazerne is a bottom-up initiative by Annemoon Geurts and Koen Rijnbeek, founded on their intrinsic motivation to contribute to social goals through the power of design and the talent of its creators.

KAZERNE FOUNDATION

The program foundation is responsible for substantive activities. The Foundation is a Public Benefit Organisation (PBO, in Dutch this is called an Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling (ANBI)), has a no profit purpose, uses the Supervisory Board model and operates in line with the Cultural Codes for Governance, Fair Practice and Diversity and Inclusion.

This foundation was 100% shareholder of Kazerne BV until the end of 2024. Ten years after Kazerne Heritage officially opened, it was time for the next step. With many thanks to all the guests and partners who made Kazerne possible every day, Kazerne Foundation now focuses on design programming as a guest in Kazerne.

KAZERNE BV

Kazerne BV is an independent entity since autumn 2024. The new owners will first focus on strengthening Kazerne’s identity as a dynamic meeting place: ‘In the coming period, surprising collaborations, innovative event concepts and a refined experience will take centre stage. Our goal? To remain a unique place where guests are inspired time and again.’
