About
UvA Ventures Holding BV enables promising technologies from the University of Amsterdam to reach the market as quickly and successfully as possible. Formed in 1992, the firm operates as a wholly owned subsidiary to manage private revenue streams. It supports academic founders with governance issues and raising the finances needed to develop their ideas. The firm typically takes temporary participation in enterprises, with exit timing dependent on company development and market goals.
