Venture Studio

Active entrepreneurship from the very first stage

Value Factory Venture Studio builds companies at a very early stage. We work with strong ideas, technologies, or urgent problems with significant potential that are not yet investment-ready businesses. Our process: from idea → validated proposition → investment-ready company.

What is the Value Factory Venture Studio?

The Venture Studio is the venture-building team of Value Factory. We combine capital with active entrepreneurship and focus on the phase where the greatest value creation occurs: the moment when a strong idea is transformed into a real company. We operate within the scope of Value Factory and deliberately build ventures that are ready for investment—by Value Factory and, where appropriate, by other investors or strategic partners.

From idea to investment-ready company 

 

Team

The Venture Studio is led by a compact and experienced team with complementary profiles, supported where needed by the broader Value Factory team:

  • Peter Kleijwegt | Venture Lead & Entrepreneur | Focus, structure, and sharp strategic decision-making
  • Jan van der Weijden | Network & Business Development | Market development, partnerships, and commercial validation
  • Wietse van Tilburg | Technical & Finance | Substantive analysis and investment readiness

What types of ideas is the Venture Studio for?

The Venture Studio is intended for propositions that:

  • fall within the scope of Value Factory

  • address a strong idea, technology, or urgent problem

  • are not (yet) investment-ready businesses

  • often do not yet have a complete team

  • have limited market validation

Do you already have a fully formed team and active customers? Then the regular investment process is likely a better fit.
