Gilde Healthcare has been investing in healthcare for forty years, and more recently in climate solutions as well. From Utrecht, Frankfurt and Boston the fund manages €3 billion, spread across Venture&Growth, Private Equity and Climate Solutions. The website is not a brochure in all of this: it is the place where the portfolio, the team and the mandatory fund documentation come together, in three languages and for three audiences at once.
Everyone who comes here comes with a question that always amounts to the same thing: does it add up? The founder looking for capital wants to know what kind of companies this fund has backed before and who he will get across the table. The investor wants to find the documentation that the regulator says has to be findable - current, in the right language, without detours. And anyone who opens the site just before a meeting forms a judgement from it in two minutes. That means there is little to invent and a lot to maintain: every portfolio company, every team member, every document, three times over, and always up to date.
We have been their build and maintenance partner since 2021. What started with maintenance and small adjustments grew into continuous development: new content types, a filterable portfolio and, in 2025, an entire third strategy within the same site. The collaboration runs on with no fixed end date. Five years of growing along with a fund that does not stand still either.
The challenge
At an investment firm the website is part shop window, part obligation. Every transaction changes the portfolio, every appointment changes the team, and for every fund the ESG documentation has to be public and has to be replaced at every revision - without the old version staying findable through Google. News appears in English and in Dutch. All of that had to fit in one admin environment, without a separate site being added for each strategy.
When Climate Solutions was added, that question became concrete: its own face, its own navigation and its own domains for a strategy that technically just runs on the same site.
Part shop window, part obligation - and all of it in one admin environment
Our approach
We started with the content structure and not with the design: what changes every week, what stays for years, and who maintains it.
- A custom WordPress theme with its own content blocks, so that every page is made up of the same building blocks and no page builder is needed
- Custom post types and taxonomies for portfolio, team, news and funds, with a URL structure that is right per strategy and category and grows along when a category is added
- A portfolio overview that can be filtered on strategy and on status - current or exit - so that one list can carry every holding
- A multilingual setup (EN/NL/DE) in which a press release exists in two languages side by side and both versions keep their own URL
- Document lists per fund for the ESG disclosures, where a replaced PDF really does disappear from the server instead of lying around
- Climate Solutions as its own colour and navigation variant within the same installation, including the separate domains that redirect to the strategy page
On top of that, hosting, uptime monitoring and the measurement setup in GA4 and Tag Manager run with us, so that outages and measurement errors are noticed before Gilde reports them.
The result
Climate Solutions went live in the autumn of 2025 on the same technical foundation, and when the fund was announced in February 2026 with an initial close of €250 million, the strategy page was already there - including team, portfolio and its own domains. News, portfolio and documentation have been maintainable in the same rhythms ever since as they were before.
In 2026 we moved more of the day-to-day management to Gilde themselves: their own editors in WordPress and a manual for the tasks that come back most often. What is left on our side is what genuinely belongs with us - the technology, the hosting and the exceptions.
We have grown together in this collaboration
Seven years on the same technical foundation, on which a third investment strategy, a third language and a growing portfolio have been built in that time.
