At ROM InWest we focus on game changers: ambitious start-ups, scale-ups and SMEs that, with their innovations, are able to accelerate the food transition, the energy transition, digitalisation and/or the transition to a circular economy.
ROM InWest finances startups, scale-ups and innovative SMEs to grow further. For this we have the Energy Transition Fund, the SME Fund and the PDENH Fund.
The SME Fund, with a size of €60.7 million, offers financing for innovative companies in a broad sense. The Transition Fund has a target capital of €100 million and is aimed at stimulating the important transitions of our time. In addition, ROM InWest has been managing the closed-end PDENH fund since 2024.
ROM InWest invests with revolving funds when the market does not and the social value is at stake. This means:
ROM InWest invests mainly from the SME Fund and the Transition Fund in companies. Our total investment budget varies from year to year, as does the distribution between the two sources of money. The SME Fund is intended for growing SME companies that work on innovations in general, while the Transition Fund is specifically aimed at entrepreneurs who contribute to the energy transition, the food transition and the transition to a circular economy.
The SME Fund was established in 2021 with the aim of strengthening the regional economy of North Holland and helping startups, scale-ups and innovative SMEs grow that can accelerate the transitions of our time.
The Transition Fund was established in 2021 to support innovative companies that can accelerate the energy transition and the transition to a circular economy.
Since our foundation in 2014, over €70 million has been invested in companies that accelerate the energy transition, circular economy and sustainable mobility. Thanks to these investments, we actively contribute to a more sustainable and innovative North Holland.
