But what features underlie the country\\u2019s success and what challenges does the Netherlands face in growing its startup ecosystem? \\n\\nOn that topic, Carlos speaks to three veterans of the Dutch ecosystem: Prince Constantijn van Oranje, startup envoy for Startup Delta - the Dutch support program that boosts the entrepreneurial climate in the Netherlands - alongside serial entrepreneur and Rockstart Founder, Oscar Kneppers and Ton van 't Noordende, Venture Partner at the seed and early-stage investors Keadyn as they discuss company building and what makes the Netherlands an attractive destination for startups and venture capital. \\n\\nTune in to understand how the Netherlands\\u2019 small size naturally builds an appetite for platform and marketplace-based companies like 3D Hubs which, by default, must scale by expanding abroad \\u2013 and how one of biggest challenges the ecosystem faces is its fragmentation. \\n\\nLearn also how to build a company, why flexibility, resilience and execution power are crucial in teams, and which sector the country\\u2019s own version of the \\u2018Paypal Mafia\\u2019 is likely to come from. \\n\\nShow notes:\\nCarlos Medium: sdca.mp/2entVR3\\nSeedcamp: www.seedcamp.com\\nStartup Delta: www.startupdelta.org\\nRockstart: www.rockstart.com\\nKeadyn: www.keadyn.com\\n\\nRelated bio links:\\nCarlos: linkedin.com/in/carloseduardoespinal / twitter.com/cee\\nPrince Constantijn: linkedin.com/in/constantijn-van-oranje-nassau-0280b38 / twitter.com/constantijn14\\nOscar: linkedin.com/in/oscarkneppers / twitter.com/oscarkneppers\\nTon: linkedin.com/in/tonvantnoordende / twitter.com/noordende"
