ComplyCube, the leading Identity Verification Provider (IDV), Know Your Customer (KYC), and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance automation platform in Europe has now partnered with StartDock, one of the fastest-growing start-ups providing co-working spaces in the heart of Amsterdam and Rotterdam. Together, they aim to equip SMEs and small businesses with the tools to enhance trust and stay compliant with the ever-evolving complexities of regulations in Europe.
As co-working spaces become essential hubs for innovation and collaboration, they also face increasing regulations, demanding businesses meet strict compliance standards. This means firms such as StartDock face heightened pressure to ensure their operations align with strict regulations like The Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing (Prevention) Act, also known by its Dutch acronym WWFT.
As the Netherlands intensifies its efforts to combat money laundering and terrorist financing, companies of all sizes must comply with the WWFT, which enforces robust customer identification protocols and continuous monitoring of business relationships. By leveraging ComplyCube’s sophisticated AI-powered compliance platform, StartDock can meet these obligations seamlessly, implementing robust customer due diligence while they focus on growth and expansion.

To further support the expanding startup and scaleup ecosystem in the Netherlands, ComplyCube and StartDock have partnered to provide tailored solutions for businesses within StartDock’s six co-working spaces in Amsterdam and Rotterdam. These offerings include advanced IDV, KYC, and AML compliance automation tools designed to help companies comply with regulatory requirements whilst delivering a seamless onboarding experience for their customers.
Alongside the WWFT, organizations must also comply with evolving European regulations. With the eIDAS 2.0 regulation coming into full force last year, organizations must now enforce stronger authentication, interoperability, and adherence to EU-wide trust frameworks. Meeting these heightened compliance expectations is crucial for businesses handling sensitive customer data, processing financial transactions, or managing secure access. Through ComplyCube’s platform, StartDock and its members can navigate these complexities efficiently, ensuring a legally compliant environment where businesses can scale with confidence.
Johan Assink, Co-Founder of StartDock, highlights the vital importance of the partnership: “Adapting to evolving regulations is essential for any business, and as a co-working space, we must ensure our operations remain fully compliant. Partnering with ComplyCube allows us to seamlessly integrate state-of-the-art compliance automation, strengthening our ability to meet stringent AML and KYC requirements. By maintaining a robust compliance framework, we create an environment where SMEs and small businesses can operate with confidence. Compliance and trust are at the heart of our spaces, enabling our members to focus on innovation and growth without regulatory concerns.”
Joshua Dent, Business Strategy and Partnerships Manager at ComplyCube, adds, “Our partnership with StartDock is built on a shared commitment to maintaining a seamless and compliant business environment. Together, we ensure that firms of all sizes can navigate evolving IDV and AML requirements while keeping their operations frictionless. As fraud and regulatory challenges become more complex, this collaboration enables StartDock and its members to uphold the highest standards, fostering a trusted space where businesses can operate with confidence.”
