With this partnership, founders will now have access to a broader range of services and a truly global network.

ACE operates in over 17 countries, helping founders expand internationally with support in incorporation, legal matters, investor connections, and market access.

ACE aims to make it affordable and easy for all businesses and entrepreneurs to grow internationally.

Together, ACE and DutchBasecamp will provide founders with the tools and insights they need for successful growth abroad.

Appoints Masha Moisseyeva as Managing Director

Besides partnership, the DutchBasecamp also announced the appointment of Masha Moisseyeva as the new Managing Director to lead this new chapter.

As a founder herself, she has built two startups in the Netherlands and led an agency helping non-EU companies enter Western European markets.

Her experience reflects the DBC ethos: by founders, for founders, with a focus on real stories, lessons learned, and practical advice.

“As a founder myself, I know expansion can be exciting but also tough. Our role at DutchBasecamp is to make sure founders don’t face it alone, to share real experiences, provide trusted guidance, and connect them with opportunities,” says Masha Moisseyeva, Managing Director of DutchBasecamp.

Focusing on founder-to-founder dialogue

As a part of the partnership, DutchBasecamp is restructuring to focus on “honest founder-to-founder dialogue,” sharing not only the successes of global expansion but also the setbacks and lessons..

Both organisations believe that technology and entrepreneurship are key to boosting Europe’s competitiveness.

Last year, DBC collaborated with ACE to share their knowledge and networks, offering better support to Dutch companies during the internationalisation process.
