A collaboration between
Government, Industry, and Academia

Internships in the Valley is a university-backed program designed to facilitate collaboration between outstanding students from Dutch universities and leading companies in the U.S.

The program was founded in 2019 as a collective pilot of the larger Holland in the Valley network. Our goal is to give interns the unique opportunity to immerse themselves in an environment where cutting-edge ideas, disruptive technologies, and forward-thinking entrepreneurs thrive.
