Don't just take our word for it...
“The Walvis investment portfolio was a good fit and we share the same family values and entrepreneurial spirit.”
“When it was time to exit Ingresso, it was a big decision to make after being so deeply involved in its growth from the beginning.”
“One of our challenges was how to get our Dutch retail franchises excited about the omni-channel strategy.”
“The Walvis team is always professional, on time and nice to deal with. This gives us a good indication of what to expect in the coming years”
“Walvis is very different from others, not like some shark investors. And they only work with growing technology and innovative scale-ups.”
“With Walvis we see the opportunity to stretch our own wings again as a standalone company and once more as an entrepreneur”
