DutchTechSF

Dutch-American entrepreneurial community of Silicon Valley

In 2015, we organized the first in a series of dinners to facilitate authentic connections among like-minded guests.

Since then, we have organized 50+ social events, educated 100+ graduate students, and successfully and unsuccessfully supported countless entrepreneurs.

It has been a great ride raising the seed of an idea to an actual community of diverse backgrounds—DutchTechSF, the Dutch-American entrepreneurial community in Silicon Valley.

"DutchTechX has proven to be a helpful resource. From opportunities to connect with other founders at events to direct introductions to experts, while acquainting myself with the US marketplace."
