Testimonials

GreenFlux - Floris van den Broek & Jan-Joost van Dam, resp. CEO & COO/CFO

Eneco Ventures invested in GreenFlux in 2018. Eneco Ventures supported and shared their expertise to prepare Greenflux to scale the business and grow internationally by following a clear and focused strategy. This resulted in a successful exit in 2021, becoming part of DKV. The dedication, knowledge and financial support of Eneco Ventures, this would not have been possible and we are thankful for their professionalism throughout the years!

Thermondo GmbH - Philipp A. Pausder, Founder & CEO

Eneco invested in Thermondo in Summer 2017 and was a shareholder until early 2021. The people at Eneco are simply put great people and fun to work with. Always approachable, always supportive. That combined with a no politics attitude and deep sector expertise made Eneco the right investor supporting us on our journey from an early stage start-up to a professionalized growth company.

Eneco Ventures Testimonials Niels Bartels

Energie in Huis - Niels Bartels, CEO

Eneco Ventures invested in Energie in Huis and introduced us to other business units of Eneco. We closely collaborated with the consumer organisation which provides for extra customers and knowhow on ‘state of the art’ marketing. Together with Eneco we worked on new product development and further professionalisation of the quality and safety control system. Maintaining independence is a recurring point of attention with so many synergies, but the choice for a corporate VC turns out to be an excellent fit!
