Having studied in Delft I can attest to the change occurring on campus. YES!Delft has changed significantly over the last few years and there are quite a few disruptive companies coming out of the incubator program. I regularly talk to a few of the resident entrepreneurs and I get the feeling that it’s the lack of capital that’s really hindering growth. For a previous startup that I abandoned, the advice I got was to prepare my pitch and fly out to SV, only because investors seem to be following instead of leading in The Netherlands.
I’m not working on another startup and I’ve gotten some great advice. It’s made me realize that certain sectors are probably easier to raise money for. In this low-interest rate environment, there’s probably a lot more capital seeking investment across the board.
Curious if anyone in Delft or elsewhere in the country has an investors perspective on what the fundraising environment will be like within the next 12 months.
