About

We are Peakfijn: startup developers.

We help aspiring tech entrepreneurs succeed by investing our team's knowledge, skills, time and, in some cases, capital into starting and scaling ventures.

We do that by helping them establish a proficient 'digital' function as part of their own (!) team.

We regularly train CTOs and tech teams by actually building the digital experience (e.g. mobile app or online application) together with the startup's own developers - and we invest in some of these companies by buying equity.

Call us on +31 20 7000 000 or email me on willem [at] peakfijn [dot] nl if you want to get in touch.

*I only connect when we've actually met.* Sorry, but no-context "I'd like to join your LinkedIn network" invites from people I don't know will probably be sent straight to /dev/null or even Twitter. Same goes for e-mails from recruiters and cheap development agencies.

Blatant SEO-recap: We're a #digital #startup #investor and #accelerator from #Amsterdam in The #Netherlands. In Dutch, we'd say: Wij zijn #investeerder en #versneller van #digitale #startups.
