Key people at TIIN Capital.
TIN Capital (formerly TIIN Capital) is a Dutch venture capital firm founded in 1998, specializing in early-stage and growth investments primarily in cybersecurity, IoT security, and high-tech sectors. Its mission is to build a safe, prosperous, and cyber-resilient Europe by supporting innovative startups and scale-ups with capital, expertise, and a strong ecosystem. The firm invests through multiple funds, including the Dutch Security TechFund and the European Cyber Tech Fund V, focusing on companies with scalable, disruptive technologies and strong growth potential in ICT, cybersecurity, and related fields[1][3][4][6].
Originating from a network of informal investors, TIIN Capital evolved into a professionally managed fund with a diverse Limited Partner base, including family offices, corporates, and institutional investors. The firm’s founding entrepreneurs established it to leverage their experience and networks to back promising technology ventures. Over time, TIIN Capital expanded its focus from early-stage investments to include buy-out and growth funds targeting later-stage SMEs, while maintaining a strong emphasis on cybersecurity and digital security innovation[1][3].
TIN Capital rides the growing global trend of cybersecurity becoming a critical priority amid increasing digital threats and IoT proliferation. The timing is crucial as Europe aims to strengthen its digital sovereignty and resilience against cyberattacks. Market forces such as regulatory pressure, rising cybercrime, and the need for secure digital infrastructure favor TIN Capital’s focus. By investing in and scaling cybersecurity innovators, the firm plays a pivotal role in enhancing Europe’s security ecosystem and enabling startups to become global leaders in this strategic sector[4][6].
Looking ahead, TIN Capital is positioned to deepen its impact by leveraging its recently closed European Cyber Tech Fund V (€80 million+) to back Series A and B cybersecurity companies with global ambitions. Trends such as AI-driven security, privacy-enhancing technologies, and secure IoT will likely shape its investment focus. As cyber threats evolve, TIN Capital’s influence is expected to grow, fostering a safer digital environment in Europe and beyond while driving innovation in security tech[6]. This evolution reflects its foundational mission to empower visionary entrepreneurs and build a resilient cyber future.
