The Power Law and the Talent Question - A Breakfast for VCs in the Netherlands

​Invite only breakfast roundtable for VCs in the Netherlands, co-hosted by Dealroom, Bluebird and 0Delta.

​Yoram Wijngaarde, Founder and CEO of Dealroom.co, will open with fresh data from Dealroom's 2026 Power Law Investor Ranking and Global Tech Ecosystem Index: where the Netherlands sits on the global venture map, what the founder and outcome data shows about how leading ecosystems compound winners, and where the headroom is for Dutch venture to grow from here.

​One question keeps surfacing in conversations with the investors at the top of the table. Capital alone is not the differentiator. What is? Founder talent, GTM support, strategic introductions, AI-native tooling. That is the conversation we want to have in the room.

​We have teamed up with Bluebird and 0Delta to dig into exactly that.

Machiel Kunst, Founder and CEO of Bluebird then will lead an interactive discussion on the commercial org side, from GTM Engineer to whether AI-native companies are really hiring differently.

​Jitse Rupp, Founder & CEO of 0Delta and Fractional CFO with deep expertise in financial strategy, will share how the AI-native CFO stack is reshaping venture-backed finance, enabling CFOs to become more AI-first. How AI native teams, the new shape of the CFO seat, and the hiring decisions investors back at Series A and B can push Dutch portfolios onto the steeper end of the curve.

Less presentation, more peer conversation. Bring your sharpest take.
