Who are our program partners?

ABN AMRO
As an intermediary of capital, ABN AMRO feels co-responsible for a well-functioning ecosystem: with an optimal exchange of ideas, people and capital, the Netherlands can be the springboard for innovative, fast-growing companies. ABN AMRO wants to be a guide to growth capital for fast-growing companies and actively uses its network to achieve this. Entrepreneurs can contact the Technology, Media & Telecom sector team or one of the bank's Growth and Innovation desks.
