Euronext congratulates Nearfield on its new unicorn status

This morning, Euronext Amsterdam held a special Gong Ceremony to honour Nearfield Instruments. Following the largest investment round in the Dutch Deep Tech sector ($380 million), Nearfield has reached a $1.6 billion valuation, evolving into a true unicorn. Nearfield builds metrology machines that detect chip imperfections at the atomic level - technology that makes a vital difference in the global semiconductor industry. This success proves once again that we can build world-class companies right here in Europe, attracting world-class capital close to home - without having to choose between being European and being global. Here at Euronext, we are proud of our strong relationships with European businesses, and we will continue to ensure that ambitious companies like Nearfield can access everything they need to scale and lead on their home continent. Congratulations to Nearfield for leading the way in Dutch Deep Tech. The group was welcomed by René van Vlerken, CEO of Euronext Amsterdam, and Christine van den Bos, Listing Director at Euronext Amsterdam.
