We Invest We have been investing in emerging markets for almost a decade and we have taken the lead or have been the partner in establishing long-term and sustainable ventures. The ventures we work with are not able to access appropriate commercial financing for the construction or expansion of the company. We invest in these businesses and play an active role as shareholder. As a result these companies become more viable and have better perspective on further growth. We Enable investments For almost ten years we have been at the forefront of promoting investments in emerging markets. We gained experience in working with an array of sustainable local and Dutch Small and Medium sized Enterprises. Most of these companies were looking for partners and/or additional finances to start or expand their business. Our large and diverse business network in the Netherlands as well as in emerging markets, enables us to connect and engage organisations and companies to invest. Business Hubs We set up Business Hubs in emerging markets. There is an important role to play for the Dutch private sector in promoting sustainable economic development in emerging economies. Dutch businesses could partly fulfill this need. Unfortunately the Dutch private sector seems to fail to seize these market opportunities. The idea persist that the risks are too high and the local situation is too unstable to be able to do serious business.
