Amsterdam Gay Pride and KPN sound gong for freedom and equality

Back

Director of the Amsterdam Gay Pride Lucien Spee sounds the gong to open trading and to call attention to human rights in general, and the acceptance and equality of LHBTI’s in particular.

The Amsterdam Gay Pride is being held for the 20th time. A big celebration with an impressive plea for the emancipation of the gay, lesbian-, bisexual, transgender and intersex communities. For nine days, more than 160 events are held in the field of debate, art, theater, film, (dance) parties and sports. The theme for 2015 is 'Share'.

This year the so-called KPN Pride Stream Boat participates in the famous boat parade; a special boat equipped with a 360 degrees streaming camera. Through this camera, for both video and audio, the entire Parade Float can be experienced. The Pride Stream can be followed via pridestream.org and is an initiative of Euronext listed company KPN (ticker symbol: KPN). With its brand mission "feel free", KPN wants people to experience that technology does not make life more detached but kinder. KPN is proud partner of the Amsterdam Gay Pride, which lasts until 2 August 2015.
