My name is Bastiaan van de Rakt and I’m a tech entrepreneur who not only builds businesses but also invests in early-stage tech ventures. I want to clarify that I’m not just an investor; I’m a tech entrepreneur actively involved in both investing and helping to scale your business, and that difference is significant.

Over the past two decades, I’ve been building and coaching new businesses in the AI & ML space. Some of these businesses were bootstrapped from scratch, while others received early-stage funding, a decision I made after careful consideration for each startup or scale-up.

In the last seven years, I’ve ventured into making direct investments, and some of these fall under the label “Why Commit Capital.”

Currently, I’m serving as the co-founder of Deeploy & Enjins. Additionally, I work as an advisor for early-stage VC funds and family offices, expanding my robust network of tech-entrepreneurial business angels in Europe.
