Oost NL is a regional development agency and venture capital investor that acts as a partner, connector, and catalyst for innovative entrepreneurs in the Dutch provinces of Gelderland and Overijssel. It invests directly in company equity — always as a minority stakeholder, targeting an exit within 5–7 years — in startups and scale-ups operating in Food, Health, Tech, Energy, and Circular Economy. Eligible companies must be based in Gelderland or Overijssel, be developing an innovative and scalable product, and have a funding need of up to €5 million. Beyond capital, Oost NL provides active coaching, connections to knowledge institutions, and co-investment facilitation, with the overarching goal of accelerating technological innovation for a livable and sustainable future in East Netherlands.
Notable quotes

Digitisation and robotisation are needed to produce sufficient healthy and sustainable food now and in the future. SAIA has developed strongly over the past two years and is ready for the further commercialisation of their product.”
“Wij zijn trots dat we met onze investering hebben bijgedragen aan de ontwikkeling en groei van LivAssured en de positieve impact die NightWatch heeft op de levens van patiënten en hun naasten.
