KPN Ventures | Revenue adding investment partner

Accelerating the revenue and impact of our portfolio

We aim to build value-creating partnerships with innovative technology companies, accelerating innovation and growth by providing access to capital, infrastructure and industry expertise, our professional network and most importantly the access to KPN’s customer base.

Focus on early growth stage investments with relevance for KPN

Our investments typically range from 1 to 5 million euro for minority stakes, building long-term partnerships, ultimately aiming for external exits, not acquisitions.

We invest in series A, B and C rounds of companies offering relevant products for KPN’s B2C and B2B customers or companies working on an important technology in the Telco sector.
