The best support
at the right moment
At Achmea Impact Ventures, we invest in digital startups with social impact. We offer a tailored approach: we look at your stage, impact and the support you need, and then bring together the funding and expertise that fit.
Questions? Read on, we’re happy to explain.
A business model that works and a story that convinces investors. Alongside our own investment, we develop your case and determine which milestones make your next round credible.
Build what’s needed, not everything that’s possible. Our product and tech experts help you choose what to build now and what not yet, and ensure a technical foundation that is secure and can scale with you.
Who are your first customers and how do you reach them? We sharpen your positioning, test channels and help build a growth approach, from the first conversations to repeatable sales.
Whether you have an idea or your first customers: the first question is whether the problem is big enough. We test your assumptions with research and experiments, and determine which numbers really matter right now.
Healthcare, work, housing and finance are sectors with strict regulations. As part of an insurer, we know them well. We help you with agreements, privacy and compliance, so regulations don’t catch you by surprise along the way.
A network that grows with your stage. First, conversations with practitioners to test your problem; later, introductions to decision-makers, partners and potential customers within Achmea, with brands such as Zilveren Kruis, Interpolis and Centraal Beheer.

It’s essential that you, as a founder, know and understand the problem and the market inside out. You take initiative, learn fast and bring people along. Does your first idea turn out not to work? Then you’re willing to adapt it. You can apply alone or with a co-founder. You live in the Netherlands and are ready to commit to this full-time.
We invest in digital-first ventures within Health & Wellbeing, Future of Work, Housing and Healthy Finances outside of insurance. We look for solutions that can be tested and launched quickly. The first market is in the Netherlands and has at least 100,000 consumers or 5,000 potential business customers. The ambition: to grow to around €2 million in revenue or a valuation of €10 million within three years.
We don’t invest if your startup depends on long-term scientific, medical or therapeutic research, or on crypto. The same applies if you’re building on data, access or intellectual property you don’t control yourself, or on a platform for which you need to build supply and demand at the same time. And we don’t build internal tools for Achmea: our ventures stand on their own feet.
