Impuls Zeeland

Week of Regional Entrepreneurship -  Impuls Zeeland

From 20 August to 24 August, the gong ceremony at Beursplein 5 focuses on the activity and entrepreneurship in the various regions in the Netherlands. During the Week of the Regional Entrepreneurship, Euronext highlights the important role of regional development agencies (ROMs). NV Economische Impuls Zeeland (Impuls) kicks off the week and opens trading. Managing director Dick ten Voorde sounds the gong.

With this, the Zeeland development company wants to underline the importance of regional development companies for the Dutch economy. The national government also sees this importance and contributes 35 million euros to this. Although there are economic opportunities in Zeeland for the taking, there are also a number of significant tasks. The Structural Reinforcement and Employment Committee presented the opportunities and threats for Zeeland. This advice led to a contribution of 35 million euros from the government for economic structure-strengthening projects. One of these projects is the Zeeland Participation Fund. This means that entrepreneurs can soon call on 6.5 million euros. The fund provides risk capital for growing companies with a substantial impact on the Zeeland economy and employment.
