30+ investment funds on board at the Young Business Awards!

A leap forward for startups and scale-ups!

At Young Venture Group, we know that the path to success starts with investing in the future. Therefore, it is with pride and great joy that we present a breakthrough in our ongoing success story: more than 30 investment funds have joined the Young Business Awards! This marks an exciting new chapter in our mission to boost the Dutch startup scene.

The investment funds

Scale-ups are the engine of innovation and economic growth. To support them, we have recently been working intensively with several national and international venture capital funds. The result? A collaboration with prominent names such as Airbridge Equity Partners, Arches Capital, Borski Fund and many more. With this powerful network, we are taking another step towards growth and success.

Investing in the future

Investment in Dutch startups remains stable at €525 million in Q2 (2023), but concern for scale-ups is still present. However, this dynamic platform and network offers an opportunity to be a catalyst for growth. We believe this collaboration will transform the entrepreneurial climate in the Netherlands, both nationally and internationally.
