Hi Veronica. Thank you for agreeing to do the interview. Could you tell us about your background and connection to the startup world?<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m originally from Finland but studied in the UK and have lived there most of my life, except for being in New York and Dublin for some time. Now, I\u2019m living in Amsterdam, which I love.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I started my career at a startup in London, a B2B SaaS similar to Crunchbase, where we provided analysis, insights, and data on VC\/M&amp;A deals. We also hosted many executive networking events with hot startups (like Airbnb, Spotify, and YPlan). Since then, I have fallen in love with the energy, passion, and mind-boggling ideas in the startup sphere.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While seeking to build a diverse background in my career, I jumped onto the \u201cother side\u201d to work for <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.citigroup.com\/global\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Citi<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in New York and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/home.barclays\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Barclays<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in London on the digital team for the app for a couple of years. Working closely with the executive team taught me a lot about how large corporates are structured and how the machine behind it all runs. At Barclays, I co-founded the Digital Unleashed Conference, where startups and big techs shared inspiring stories.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By then, it was time to jump back into working closer daily with startups. So I joined the startup team at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AWS<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in Amsterdam. I\u2019m now working with early-stage startups \u2013 leading the Early Stage Priority for EMEA North (Benelux, Nordics, Baltics, DACH, and CEE) in beautiful Amsterdam.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>2. Tell us more about your mission of helping early-stage startups at <a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon Web Services<\/a>.<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At AWS, we love startups. We have local teams worldwide and work closely with startups from their earliest stages. From experience and building the cloud since 2006, we\u2019ve always worked backward from our customer needs (90% of our roadmap and features directly result from customer feedback). For example, whether startups are in the MVP, growth, or scaleup phases, we have Startup Solutions Architects who can help brainstorm, advise, and review the customers\u2019 architecture. We also have partners who can help with hands-on building. On the technical side, we have many Benelux Case Studies for inspiration, for example, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/solutions\/case-studies\/smartocto-case-study\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smartocto<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/solutions\/case-studies\/leadinfo-case-study-2022\/?did=cr_card&amp;trk=cr_card\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leadinfo<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When founders need help brainstorming their go-to-market strategy, we have industry experts on both the technical and business side in almost all verticals. We work with startups to co-sell with us via the AWS Partner Network\u00a0and the AWS Marketplace, where more than 300,000 customers go to find, subscribe to, and deploy third-party software.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result of having the industry\u2019s largest customer and partner community and millions of active customers every month, we naturally often act as an ecosystem connector, for example, in helping founders find new business opportunities, investments, or introductions between customers through events we host like the Founders Circle in Benelux.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re interested in connecting, I\u2019d suggest looking at our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/startups\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Startup Resources<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, online and local <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/aws-startup-lofts.com\/emea\/events?language=English\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">events<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (both Business and Technical tracks), technical <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/aws-startup-lofts.com\/emea\/meet-aws-expert\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ask an Expert sessions<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, or applying to our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/aws-startup-lofts.com\/emea\/program\/accelerator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Startup Loft Accelerator<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> program.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>3. Which advice would you give to startup founders looking to grow and scale internationally?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Growing from a local startup to an international scaleup is an exciting move and a topic we discuss with founders often. Taking the time to strategically plot which markets make the most business sense by looking at addressable market size, talent, regulations, competitors, and national government agenda (especially for grants) is essential. Considering culture and cultural differences is also vital for building a successful international team and addressing the local market and customer needs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another piece of advice I often give startups is to network in the ecosystem, attend events, and connect with founders who have previously expanded into new markets. Don\u2019t be shy to ask for help and advice, and choose investors that can help.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>4. What\u2019s going well in the startup ecosystem in the Netherlands at the moment? Which challenges is the ecosystem facing? How do you feel you\u2019re contributing?<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Right now, to me, it seems like investors are more cautious with their capital in taking \u201cbigger bets\u201d and performing higher due diligence, dispersing out smaller deals while the focus seems to be shifting more to earlier-stage businesses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where are the significant sums going? Last year\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/goldeneggcheck.com\/q3-analyse-2022\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VC Analysis of the Dutch Market<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> showed that climate investors and investment predominated substantial sums like Lightyear with \u20ac81M and Elestor with \u20ac30M.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many new funds have been added in the Netherlands recently, including Peak Capital\u2019s \u20ac150M Seed Fund, Endeit Capital with \u20ac303M, and Newion with \u20ac130M. In my opinion, it\u2019s encouraging, and we see depth and resilience in the Dutch startup scene.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If startups need help with their funding journey, at the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/aws-startup-lofts.com\/emea\/program\/accelerator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AWS Loft Accelerator<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> program, we help them become funding-ready with hands-on workshops and concrete use cases, all designed to validate and perfect their go-to-market strategy, pitch deck, and storytelling. Through the program, startups benefit from the extensive AWS network of industry leaders, technology experts, serial entrepreneurs, investors, startup organizations, advisors, and partners.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>5. What do you predict for the ecosystem in the Netherlands in the near future?<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dutch startups are already thriving in many ways, and the Netherlands has the potential to become a leader in the ecosystem across Europe. According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/industries\/technology-media-and-telecommunications\/our-insights\/building-a-world-class-dutch-start-up-ecosystem\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">McKinsey\u2019s report<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the Netherlands ranks fourth in terms of startup value creation in Europe, and among cities, Amsterdam is one of Europe\u2019s fastest-growing startup hubs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a drive in further acceleration in growth, I would personally like to see more diversity, especially around founder background and an increase in the share of female founders (according to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/siliconcanals.com\/news\/startups\/amsterdams-female-entrepreneurs\/#:~:text=Women%20account%20for%2036%20per,the%20Netherlands%2C%20adds%20the%20report.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Silicon Canals 2022 report<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, female founder share was at 36%) to bring an increasingly diverse set of ideas and businesses into the market. In addition, generally increasing favorable conditions for startups and incentivizing more top talent to the region through creating favorable taxation, increasing employee stock option ownership plans, and allocating more capital to entrepreneurship and innovation. Overall, I think it\u2019s an inspiring time for the region, and I\u2019m very thankful to be part of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thank you for sharing your story and insights, Veronica.
