ING and ECE have officially extended their partnership. In this partnership both parties will continue to work together to reach their common goal: empowering entrepreneurship in the ECE Community and stimulating innovation.  

On July 22, 2016, Martin Luxemburg, director of ECE, and Ton Marsman, Senior Customer Journey Expert Startups of ING,  agreed on the partnership.

The partnership will focus on the physical presence of ING in the ECE Community – via an ING meeting office at the ECE Campus – and ECE education programmes for ING’s network (from startups to corporates), teams and departments. Martin Luxemburg notes: “ING is a progressive, innovative bank that adds value to our ecosystem in multiple ways, by providing access to knowledge, funding and networks for our community members”.

By extending the partnership, the longstanding relation between the parties is being continued. “ECE is an important entrepreneurship expertise centre within the ecosystem. The expertise of ECE and its (startup) community is very valuable for our network (ranging from startups to corporates), as well as for the teams and departments within ING“ said Ton Marsman.
