Capital Mills welcomes two new partners
The Capital Mills team is proud to announce that Barry de Kock and René Delsing have been promoted to partner. Both have started their careers at Capital Mills and since then have grown and matured into all aspects of the profession. The network and portfolio companies have already been notified of this news during the annual portfolio day on September 30th.
Capital Mills' mission is to help companies fund their growth with maximum capital efficiency. This might seem obvious, but in venture capital - this is a differentiating characteristic.
Since 2015, Capital Mills provides European B2B software companies with growth capital in the form of late-seed equity, secondaries, and revenue-based finance. Its portfolio has grown to over €50m AUM, with over 20 companies from the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and Ireland.
Gijs: “At Capital Mills we are proud to have a loyal team, together with whom we think long term. This benefits our portfolio companies and investors alike. The promotion of Barry and René must be seen from this light: with them stepping up, we ensure the longevity and impact of our way of working.”
Erwin: “Since the start, we have been setting the right parameters in order for Capital Mills to be scalable and sustainable. And like any healthy organization and institution, a change of responsibility to a next generation is imperative. And not unimportantly, it has been a joy working with them, and therefore I am happy they will stay for the long term”.
Barry: “After almost 10 years at Capital Mills I am truly honored and keen to take on the role of managing partner. Despite the many milestones we have reached, we still feel there is a lot more we can accomplish. Together with the whole team, we look forward to support more impactful technology companies and making sure more investors are rewarded for investing in them”.
René: “Becoming a partner at Capital mills is both a privilege and a responsibility that I embrace with great excitement. I thank Gijs and Erwin for their trust. We have only scratched the surface of what is possible with our unique mix of financing products. On to many more years of innovation, growth and building strong relationships with our LP’s and community.”
