Every euro invested by UNIIQ now generates more than \u20ac13 in follow-on investments. In total, UNIIQ-backed companies have raised over \u20ac328 million in\u00a0subsequent\u00a0funding. Moreover, around 80% of these companies succeed in securing a follow-on funding round within three years and continue to grow successfully. UNIIQ primarily targets research-driven startups with complex technologies, often originating from knowledge institutions and active in sectors such as life sciences, deep\u00a0tech\u00a0and high-tech industry. The fund succeeds in linking technological innovation with societal relevance and commercial viability, making UNIIQ a key player in the\u00a0early stages\u00a0of innovation in the Netherlands.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Without UNIIQ, no substance to build on<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In the early phase, young founding teams face fundamental decisions around team composition,\u00a0organisational\u00a0structure,\u00a0financing\u00a0and strategic focus. It is precisely at this stage that UNIIQ is actively involved. The fund supports founders throughout their growth journey through intensive coaching, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uniiq.nl\/en\/qa-session\/\">consultation\u00a0sessions<\/a><\/span>\u00a0and substantive guidance.\u00a0From sharpening the value proposition to building a fundable and scalable business narrative. After a decade of pioneering, UNIIQ emphasises that investing entails more than capital alone: it contributes to systematically strengthening the organisational foundations of young companies. This commitment requires time and\u00a0resources, but\u00a0has resulted in a portfolio in which several companies, with UNIIQ as an early partner, have successfully grown and scaled.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Successful companies\u00a0at a glance<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">For example, the Leiden-based\u00a0medtech\u00a0company\u00a0<span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uniiq.nl\/en\/portfolio-item\/varmx\/\">VarmX<\/a><\/span>\u00a0is developing a promising treatment for patients who use blood thinners and has now entered a Phase 3 clinical trial, funded by CSL,\u00a0a development through which UNIIQ has contributed to high-quality healthcare from the very outset. In the maritime sector, Smart-Ship contributes to safer and more efficient navigation through haptic technology, which is now being rolled out on dozens of vessels worldwide. UNIIQ is also active within the quantum ecosystem:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/uniiq.nl\/en\/portfolio-item\/quantware\/\">QuantWare<\/a>, based in Delft, received an early UNIIQ investment in 2021 and is now developing quantum chip technology that is being applied globally in quantum computers.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Where knowledge and market come together<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">A distinguishing element of UNIIQ\u2019s approach is the deployment of deep technical and market\u00a0expertise. By working with specialised experts from knowledge institutions and the market, scientific knowledge is actively unlocked and translated into applicable innovations. This integrated approach,\u00a0in which knowledge institutions and market parties\u00a0operate\u00a0not\u00a0alongside each other, but together,\u00a0increases the likelihood that complex technologies truly find their way into practice.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cUNIIQ works with deep technical\u00a0expertise\u00a0from both knowledge institutions and the market.
