Together with the province of North Holland and an extensive network of experts, we support entrepreneurs to go to market faster, smarter and more robustly. With a practical approach, guidance and a network of regional partners, GO!-NH offers entrepreneurs the tools and network to increase their impact.
“We can deploy our venture development approach programmatically in GO!-NH. Individually, as ROM InWest, we already guide many entrepreneurs, but with GO!-NH we do it in a pressure cooker together with the entire North Holland ecosystem.”- Stef Mellema, ROM InWest.

Why through ROM InWest?
ROM InWest is involved in GO!-NH from start to finish: from the content of the programme to the selection of participants and implementation. This makes GO!-NH a logical extension of our venture development services. We help entrepreneurs individually and in groups. In GO!-NH we can deploy our knowledge, network and guidance in a programme in which cooperation and acceleration are central.
And all in close cooperation with the ecosystem: experts, investors, governments, support programmes such as PIM and other regional partners help build participants' success. We are actively expanding this network: partners are welcome to join.
