Launch international ELITE growth programme for Dutch SMEs

The gong was sounded on the occasion of the launch of the ELITE programme in the Netherlands, in collaboration with three leading Dutch partners: the Erasmus Centre for Entrepreneurship (ECE), ScaleUp Company and NLgroeit. ELITE is a multi-day programme aimed at helping founders and directors of growth-stage companies with revenues of €10 to €100 million to achieve sustainable growth in private and public capital markets.

Euronext acquired ELITE as part of its acquisition of the Borsa Italiana Group in 2021 and has since been strongly committed to expanding the growth programme in Euronext countries as part of Euronext's "Growth for Impact 2024" strategic plan. The roll-out of the growth programme in the Dutch market follows the successful launch of the programme in Portugal earlier this year.

Representatives of ELITE and the Dutch partners were welcomed by Simone Huis in 't Veld, CEO at Euronext Amsterdam.
