The Van Abbemuseum presents the internationally oriented exhibitionseries Positions, which is currently programmed for five years. Emerging and mid-career artists are invited to develop new work. Positions exhibits a diverse range of new artistic practices and gives direct insight into the themes that artists feel are urgent. Participating artists include Lawrence Abu Hamdan, Bouchra Khalili, Anna Boghiguian and Nástio Mosquito. Ammodo supports Positions because it focuses on the voice of the artist. Positions thereby offers an alternative to the larger thematic and research focused exhibitions and retrospective solo exhibitions that the museum also presents.

The Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten focuses on developing talent through a two-year residency programme. Artists from around the world have the opportunity to work in optimal conditions to deepen and broaden their artistic practice. During their stay at the Rijksakademie the resident artists are supported by advisors on artistic, technical and theoretical levels. In addition to permanent advisors the Rijksakademie also uses the Guest Advisors Circle. This additional body is set up to focus attention on current developments in the arts and to address the interests and concerns of the individual artists. Ammodo supports the Guest Advisors Circle and by so doing contributes to the development of contemporary visual artists.

Since 2015 Foam presents a four-year exhibition series Next Level during the Unseen Photo Fair. Foam has chosen Next Level as a way of offering promising talented artists the opportunity to develop new work and increase their public recognition. The museum annually offers one artist the opportunity to organise his/her first major solo exhibition. Selection is conditional upon the artist having already proved him/herself and showing that he/she is innovative in the use of the medium of photography. The first two artists who have been invited to take part in the series are Anne De Vries (The Hague, 1977) and Melanie Bonajo (Heerlen, 1978). They have been asked to create new work for the exhibition. Ammodo supports Next Level because the series contributes to the creation of new work, the development of the participating artists and the display of their work to an international audience.

RAW Academy is a postgraduate course for international artists, curators and critics in Dakar, initiated by Koyo Kouoh, curator and founder of Raw Material Company. In Senegal, the traditional academies are dominant and there are few opportunities for young artists who have completed their training to continue to develop in an innovative and independent manner. Ammodo supports RAW Academy as a way of contributing to the creation of a high-quality postgraduate institution in Senegal and promoting the exchange between different artistic media.
