Earlier this year, Erasmus Centre for Entrepreneurship and nlgroeit published the latest edition of the Top 250 Scaleups, the annual monitor of the fastest–growing companies in the Netherlands. Following the release of the Top 250 Scaleups 2022 Insights Report, the time has come to announce the Top 5 Nominations for Impactful, Young, and Female Scalers of 2022! The winners of these prestigious awards will be announced at the Top 250 Scaleups Event on 10 October.  

In the Female Scaler category, fast-growing companies with at least one female founder and/or a female at a C-level position are put in the spotlight. The harsh reality is that only 11.6% of the Top 250 Scaleups 2022 have a female entrepreneur, which makes this spotlight a crucial initiative to empower female entrepreneurship and leadership.

We are proud to reveal the five nominees for the Female Scaler Award 2022. These five scaleups have been nominated based on the impressive growth they have experienced over the past three years.

The Female Scaler 2022 will be awarded to one of the following contenders (in alphabetical order), on 10 October during the Top 250 Scaleups Event:
