If you want to know what happened and what was discussed, go to the DLD website. My full set of pictures is here.

It was a great happening tonight at the first get together of the DCIF investment committee meeting at IDG. Not only did we take the decision to make some further investments in Dutch digital start ups, we also met with all our portfolio companies and had updates from them and drinks together. A special place had the founders of Wakoopa, since the company exists exactly two years today. Happy Birthday to them! It was also the first time since my freak scooter accident last week that I took some pictures for the Dutch digital pioneers book I am working on. Not that easy I found with a broken collarbone...
