Dutch startups off to a slow start in 2016 – raising €69 million in Q1

▤ Summary

The funding activity is slightly higher compared to the previous quarter, when 59 million euro was raised in Q4 2015 – but is off to a slow start compared to the same period last year, when nearly 86 million euro was raised. Recent numbers from Tech.eu show nearly the same trend (Q4 2015 to Q1 2016) through all of Europe + Israël, when compared to statistics in the Netherlands. Here’s the full list of Dutch startup funding in Q1 2016, ranked highest to lowest. The scale-up, founded in 1999, allegedly got 140 million euro in a series D round from HAL Investments for 20 percent of the company. In the past we included big fish scale-ups like Adyen and Catawiki because they’re still growing fast (and are max ten years old).
