Investments in digital & sustainability
Investing in companies that make the world a better place by being who they are.
Empowering the people that power the web.
Emilia invests in companies that play on the world wide web. We like to be close to our portfolio companies. We’re not there to tell them what to do but instead to cheer them on and give them advice when they ask for it. With our combined experience in running a scale up and development and marketing acumen, we can help our the companies we invest in excel.

In this post I’ll explain why I think bootstrapping is great and why, in spite of that, we still invest in other companies.

Not the typical entrepreneur

We are Silicon Valley-like in our mindset and live in a small town in the Netherlands. In this blog post, I explain a little bit of our story and our values and mindset.
