Angel Club North helps founders of startups, scale-ups and innovative SMEs in the Northern Netherlands grow faster. Founders get access to capital, knowledge and a strategic network.
At the same time, we are building a strong community where experienced angels and ambitious entrepreneurs meet at a high level.
