After excluding the single undisclosed entry (Folkvang, 2022-10-06), disclosed round sizes cluster between $2M and $22M, with Open Social posting the smallest disclosed amount at $100K on 2022-02-07.

Frequently asked
Which disclosed debt rounds stand out in size, and how extreme are the gaps?
Floryn’s $64M on 2022-10-24 is the only disclosed round above $50M, dwarfing the next-largest disclosed amounts of $22M (ZONNEPANELENDELEN on 2022-04-07) and $20M (Moove on 2022-07-14). At the low end, Open Social’s $100K on 2022-02-07 is the smallest disclosed amount in the list.
Is Amsterdam over-represented among Netherlands debt-funded startups on this page?
Yes. Five of the 10 entries are based in Amsterdam, Noord-Holland (Folkvang on 2022-10-06, Moove on 2022-07-14, Factris on 2022-06-09, ZONNEPANELENDELEN on 2022-04-07, and Airborne Technology on 2022-04-06). The remaining entries are split across s-hertogenbosch (Floryn), Rotterdam (Umincorp), Enschede (Owlfy), The Hague (Airborne Technology is listed in The Hague) and Eindhoven (SMART-Photonics).
How clustered are the round dates, and when does activity appear to peak?
Dates shown run from 2021-07-02 (SMART-Photonics) to 2022-10-24 (Floryn), with most rounds concentrated in 2022. In particular, October 2022 includes Floryn (2022-10-24) and the undisclosed Folkvang (2022-10-06), while spring 2022 holds multiple closings: ZONNEPANELENDELEN (2022-04-07), Airborne Technology (2022-04-06), and Open Social (2022-02-07 sits further back in early 2022).
Do specific sectors dominate debt financing rounds in this slice?
Financial Services appears repeatedly, covering 5 of the 10 entries: Floryn, Folkvang, Moove, Factris, and ZONNEPANELENDELEN. The other sectors in the list are Manufacturing (Umincorp, Airborne Technology), Administrative Services (Owlfy), Community and Lifestyle (ZONNEPANELENDELEN is also listed under Community and Lifestyle), Commerce and Shopping (Open Social), and Hardware (SMART-Photonics).
Are there notable outliers beyond the largest dollar amount?
Yes. In addition to Floryn’s $64M on 2022-10-24, Open Social’s $100K on 2022-02-07 is a sharp downside outlier relative to the mid-range of $2M–$22M (e.g., Owlfy $2M on 2022-08-01 and Factris $11M on 2022-06-09). There is also one non-disclosed case: Folkvang on 2022-10-06 is marked undisclosed, which limits size comparisons for that entry.
