Vincent Steur

Vincent is from Almere. At eighteen he started studying Political Science at the VU, but soon found he would rather be doing than sitting in lecture halls. He joined the audit practice of PwC and studied Accounting at Nyenrode at the same time, until 2011.

In 2013 Vincent joined Soestdijk Capital, which later became Committed Capital. He has been a Partner since 2024. Vincent reads a room well: where the tension is, and how to motivate someone. That can take a good conversation, but when it is needed he turns up the pressure too. He loves building winning teams and set up the training plan for colleagues at Committed Capital. What he enjoys most is talking with entrepreneurs about what they have built, what they learned along the way and what they still want to build.

Vincent still lives in Almere with his family. He has a son and a daughter. Like Wai, he knows the national football players of his youth by heart, but he is just as happy with a philosophical discussion or a podcast about history. One day he wants to write a book, although he does not expect it to become a bestseller.

I want an entrepreneur to make money with me, and to enjoy it. You cannot analyse everything: sometimes you just have to try something. An entrepreneur once told me about an idea from long ago: 'It came to nothing, but it could have been something.' That is entrepreneurship. And what always stays with me is that the bond stays warm, even with entrepreneurs where business went less well than hoped. You built something together, faced setbacks and celebrated successes. In the end we invest in companies, but we work with people.
