Duco Sickinghe is the Managing Partner and co-founder of Fortino Capital, a venture capital firm he established in December 2013 to help technology companies grow. He previously served as the Chief Executive Officer of Telenet, Belgium’s leading cable broadband provider, and began his career at Hewlett Packard and NeXT Computer. Fortino Capital’s investment thesis focuses on B2B software and technology companies across Western Europe, targeting early to growth-stage ventures. Sickinghe has acted as the lead partner on 19 deals, indicating a strong tendency to lead rather than follow investments. Notable portfolio companies include Telenet, which he led to a stock exchange listing, and other Western European B2B software firms backed by Fortino since its founding. While specific check sizes are not publicly detailed, his role as lead on nearly two dozen transactions suggests active involvement in deal structuring. Sickinghe also serves as Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Royal KPN NV and Chairman of Van Eeghen International BV, reflecting his broader governance experience beyond venture investing.
