What is it that we do? Well........
We, Rene van Stiphout and Tino Scholman, founders of De Haas Ventures, both have worked at software companies of all sizes, from very large to extremely small. And we worked at larger corporates and proud Dutch brand names. We held senior management roles in sales, marketing and operations. We also founded companies and exited these at beneficial times.
At De Haas Ventures, we work with a small team of Enterprise Software experts. Average Enterprise Sales&Marketing experience is 15+ years. Our experiences ranges from Architecture to Development to Customer Service to Enterprise Sales to Regional leadership to running full 500M€+ companies.
Now the time has come to put our experience and network to work with young scale-ups, companies with a proven minimal viable product, returning customers, who are looking to scale. It is so much fun and full-filling to work with new talent, young people, pioneers, visionairs and disruptive thinkers. We recognise so much of our own personalities in these entrepreneurial folks that we have decided to focus on this group.

In this phase you will focus on your “invention” and on the business model “how to make money out of this invention”. It ain’t easy. Two steps forward, one step back, etc. But when the going gets tough, the tough keep going.
All your focus in on the Minimal Viable Product. Hardly do you think of how to sell this product, to whom, for what value.
