Job Opportunity: Investment Manager

Royalis Investments originated in a local café, where Bart Kuijpers and Maurits Roose met. They were inspired to bring a new kind of venture investing to the Netherlands and Europe. A model based on authentic value creation and venture capital patience. Bart and Maurits knew of innovative companies that were pushed to sell by their investors just as the companies were about to race ahead. The model seemed to encourage a few years of innovation, and then cut the momentum dead. They decided to launch a fund that favoured achieving true market leadership over generating returns on a schedule.

Mission Royalis

Investments is developing a portfolio of the market leaders of tomorrow. Its mission is to play a supporting role in building the brands that create the future. Royalis fosters innovation by helping innovators thrive. Return-driven concerns and timelines take a backseat to continued growth.
