Organisation records are published from the Flux Forward organisation register and shown here exactly as that register holds them. We do not research, write or edit them on this site, and a listing is not an endorsement or a sign that an organisation can help with your situation. Check the organisation's own website before acting.

More about where our information comes from

Its geographic rule is narrow and explicit: it invests only in companies headquartered in the Netherlands.

About

Shamrock Ventures is a venture capital fund based in Amsterdam. Its legal entity is Shamrock Ventures Cooperatief U.A., a Dutch cooperative registered with the Chamber of Commerce under number 84856807. It calls itself an early-stage impact fund and backs technology companies that are built to deliver environmental or social results alongside a commercial return. The usual entry point is a pre-seed round, with a cheque of between 100,000 and 250,000 euros. It can lead a round or come in beside other investors, and it holds capital back to invest again in later rounds. It does not ask for revenue or a finished product first. After investing, it puts two members of its own team alongside the founders on a regular basis, drawing on the operating and technical experience of its founding partners.

What they offer

  • Pre-seed investment of 100,000 to 250,000 euros in Dutch-headquartered technology companies
  • Leading or co-investing in a round, with follow-on capital in later rounds
  • Two assigned team members working with each portfolio founding team
  • Pitch submission route for founders

Funding

Good to know

  • Its published criteria are a founding team of more than one person, a technical co-founder where technology is central to the product, a mission it finds convincing, and a market large enough to scale into.
  • Founders approach it by submitting a pitch through the website. There is a contact form rather than a published email address.
