The HSD Development Fund,  which was available in 2014 and 2015, aimed to support organisations’ innovative ideas to get through the phase between basic research and the development of a concept model, also known as ‘the Valley of Death’. The Fund was supported by the municipality of The Hague in order to strengthen the Dutch security cluster. In 2014 and 2015 each 1 million euro was made available. Proposals were assessed by the city council of The Hague, InnovationQuarter and HSD on their relevance to the security domain, the innovativeness of the ideas, the level of public-private or private-private collaboration, and their potential for creating additional market opportunities.
