Amsterdam Consultancy Group

The Amsterdam Consultancy Group (ACG) is an integral part of the MAA, connecting students in the final phase of their studies that act as student consultants and helps companies in the field of marketing, management, consultancy, and communication. ACG offers its members a chance to step beyond the classroom and work on real business challenges as student consultants.

As a member of ACG, you’ll collaborate with a variety of organizations, delivering fresh insights and strategic solutions to contemporary issues. The committee independently selects its projects, allowing members to engage with notable companies. Companies that preceeded you were: University of Amsterdam, Royal Flora Holland, Nestlé, Make a Wish Foundation, the Child Phone and Joe and the Juice. This hands-on experience not only enriches your academic journey but also strengthens your professional network.

ACG tailors its consulting approach to each organization’s needs—whether it’s contributing to a brainstorming session, addressing specific strategic issues, or leading comprehensive consulting assignments. For larger projects, ACG extends opportunities to MAA members through a selection process involving CV screenings, motivation letters, and interviews.

By partnering with ACG, companies gain valuable insights and innovative solutions at a non-profit rate, making it a cost-effective way to access the perspectives of tomorrow’s business leaders.
