Techleap is a Dutch organization focused on helping tech scaleups grow and scale their companies within the Netherlands ecosystem. They offer tailored scaling programmes, deeptech innovation programmes, and provide access to a trusted community of founders and tech leaders to support company growth.
Their mission is to empower Dutch tech founders in scaling their companies while strengthening the entire tech ecosystem in the process. What started as a government-subsidised initiative has evolved into a grassroots movement driven by the founders themselves, operating through community building, scaling programmes, government policy work, and data reporting.
Techleap exists to solve a critical problem in the Dutch startup landscape where companies struggle to scale and miss opportunities for growth and value creation. By building a supportive, self-sustaining founder community and removing barriers to growth, they aim to accelerate the entire tech ecosystem and position the Netherlands as a leader in global innovation.
Techleap focuses on Dutch tech scaleups across various sectors, with specific emphasis on deeptech innovation through dedicated programmes. Their approach centers on providing scaling programmes, community access, and ecosystem support rather than traditional investment, targeting companies that are ready to scale but face barriers in the Dutch market.
