Amsterdam-based Volta Ventures launches €20M fund to back B2B startups across Benelux

Amsterdam-based Volta Ventures has launched a €20M seed fund aimed at early-stage B2B software startups in the Benelux region. 

The fund plans to support approximately 15 companies and is supported by a network of accomplished Dutch and Belgian entrepreneurs.

Volta is increasing its focus on early-stage SaaS development in the Benelux region through its new fund. “AI is enabling startups to build solutions at a scale and speed that simply wasn’t possible before,” says Sander Vonk, co-founder and Managing Partner at Volta.

Volta Ventures Seed has already made its first two investments: Langwatch in Amsterdam, which focuses on AI-based observability for language models, and Predikt in Leuven, which works on AI-based forecasting and analytics.
