INVESTORS → Europe → Netherlands
The tech ecosystem in Netherlands has shown resilency in spite of the crisis. To celebrate that, we compiled a list of the top investors in Netherlands, showcasing those who've demonstrated exceptional acumen, vision, and commitment to fostering innovation in the region.
This list is the result of tracking investment activity across +2,500 venture capital investors in Europe, and only includes funds that have invested in at least 5 startups in Netherlands in the past 12 months (not just investors with offices in Netherlands). Whether you're a budding entrepreneur seeking the right funding partner, an investor looking for co-investment opportunities, or simply curious about the financial powerhouses investing in Netherlands, this list provides invaluable insights into the region.

A score closer to 100 indicates an investor is worth watching closely.
