Innovative enterprises looking to scale often encounter barriers that require more than just funding. Invest-NL can help address these bottlenecks with knowledge and expertise. For example, by developing the demand side or seeking collaboration within the supply chain.
Groundbreaking ideas do not become reality on their own. That is why Invest-NL possesses not only capital but also legal, technical, and market expertise. With our knowledge, we break through financing bottlenecks and assist in building a new ecosystem that directs capital towards the transitions. With the same goal, we seek collaborations within the chain, both nationally and internationally.
This is how we make change fundable.
We look at the market, map out financing hubs and tackle them. We are working on new solutions and forms of collaboration to initiate innovations and accelerate transitions.
For certain markets, we indicate how their development can be accelerated. For example, we conducted research on the crucial role of shared facilities in scaling up biobased chemistry.

Read more hereWe develop agreements that promote collaboration within supply chains so that risks can be shared. In this way, we have put together a toolkit for establishing energy hubs. This enables companies to jointly improve sustainability and share scarce grid capacity.

Read more hereWe want to build a bridge between government policy and market opportunities, so that financing better aligns with policy objectives. We bring parties closer together, for example through financing tables. Policymakers, financiers, and entrepreneurs discuss their financing needs and try to formulate solutions.
Sustainable technologies don't develop overnight, and often funding is a bottleneck. That is why we try to resolve the issues that hinder innovations.
