ABN AMRO launches Doorpakken: a growth platform for SMEs ready to scale

Dutch SMEs are keen to grow, but many struggle to move beyond the initial phase. Research by ABN AMRO shows that nearly half of medium-sized companies (45%) and more than a third of small businesses (34%) actively pursue growth. Yet 90 to 96 percent of all start-ups never make it past the first growth phase. In this early stage, the entrepreneur is closely involved in almost every aspect of the business. Time is scarce, oversight is limited and access to suitable financing often falls short. This makes many businesses vulnerable, increasing the risk of growth stalling or the company even stopping altogether. At the same time, new technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) now offer opportunities to grow in terms of productivity and efficiency. ABN AMRO's Doorpakken platform addresses this growth gap by providing targeted support to entrepreneurs through insights, practical tools, mentorship and financing solutions.

Top Dutch male DJs earn an average of € 900,000 more a year than female counterparts

There is structural inequality in the Dutch electronic music industry between the incomes of male and female DJs. While the sector is breaking international records, top male DJs earn an average of € 900,000 a year more than their female counterparts. These are among the findings of research by ABN AMRO, sponsor of DGTL Festival. The same inequality applies to up-and-coming DJs. Despite the presence of female talent and interest from fans, men are booked significantly more often at every level. To promote change, DGTL and ABN AMRO will be presenting the documentary Her Sound and a large-scale art installation developed by talented students of the DGTL Academy during the upcoming edition of the festival.
