CIWI Wins the Rabobank Impact Fund

We Won €25,000 from Rabobank Impact Funds!

On October 30th, CIWI was awarded €25,000 from Rabobank's Impact Fund. We are deeply grateful to Rabobank for their support and belief in our mission.

The most valuable gift you can give an entrepreneur is peace of mind—the freedom to focus on their product, refine their technology, and develop solutions alongside their customers. This is exactly what Rabobank has given us.

With their help, we’re able to channel our energy into creating sustainable water treatment solutions that make a difference.

We received the check at ImpactFest, held at the Fokker Terminal in The Hague. ImpactFest, Europe's leading impact event, brings together startups, scale-ups, investors, policymakers, and innovators to collaborate on solutions for global challenges. The energy and innovation showcased at this event made it the perfect backdrop for this milestone in CIWI's journey.

Rabobank plays a crucial role in supporting startups and scale-ups, providing not just financial solutions but also valuable connections and expert guidance. Their Startup & Scale-up Team is dedicated to understanding the unique needs of high-growth companies, helping them accelerate development and make a meaningful impact. Through initiatives like the Impact Fund, Rabobank empowers entrepreneurs to focus on innovation and growth, fostering a sustainable and inclusive economy.

We are proud and grateful to have Rabobank as our banking partner, supporting us every step of the way as we work to bring sustainable water treatment solutions to life. Thank you for believing in our mission!

We want to sincerely thank Rick van Schie for his role in awarding CIWI this support.

Rick, who runs a horticultural business in Westland, brought his experience as an entrepreneur to the decision-making process.

Rick shared:
"CIWI is tackling an important challenge with a smart and practical approach. Their focus on sustainability and innovation fits perfectly with what we need to see more of in the future."

We’re grateful for Rick’s recognition of our efforts and his trust in what we’re building. It’s a great encouragement to know that people with real-world experience in business see the value of our work.
