At KeepYourHomeIP, our mission has always been clear: to provide remote workers, digital nomads, and global professionals with a seamless, secure, and uncompromising way to connect to their home networks using their residential IP addresses. This year, that mission gained powerful momentum through our participation in one of Europe’s most respected tech innovation hubs: YES!Delft.

From joining their Cybersecurity Accelerator Program, to pitching our technology at a pre‑NATO summit event in The Hague and finally being featured in a major YES!Delft story, here’s how the journey unfolded, and what it means for KYHIP’s future.

🚀 Kicking Off with YES!Delft: Cybersecurity Accelerator Programme

In early May 2025, KeepYourHomeIP was selected to participate in the highly competitive YES!Delft Cybersecurity Accelerator Program, an intensive track designed to help cybersecurity startups validate their market, sharpen their go-to-market strategies, and connect with a strong European network of partners, investors, and mentors.

This wasn’t just another accelerator. Organised in collaboration with the Municipality of The Hague, InnovationQuarter, TNO, and Security Delta (HSD), the program was crafted to meet real-world cybersecurity challenges. Our cohort included startups tackling everything from identity protection to cyber threat mapping, and KYHIP was there to champion a new kind of secure remote access: one rooted in the power of your own home IP.

Over the course of the program, our team participated in:

• Deep-dive cybersecurity sessions led by industry leaders
• One-on-one mentorship from names like Pieter Jansen (Cybersprint, now Darktrace) and Geert van Kuyck (ex‑CCO, Riscure)
• Intense validation sprints to align KYHIP’s tech with user needs
• Collaborative workshops on topics from investor readiness to public-private partnerships

For us, it was more than knowledge, it was a push to go further, faster. 👉 Read the full list of participants and the programme summary here

🛡️ Pitching at “Securing the Future” Pre-NATO Summit

The accelerator program culminated in a powerful moment for KeepYourHomeIP, a live pitch at the “Securing the Future: Innovation for Resilience” event, held on June 23, 2025, in The Hague. This event brought together over 950 security professionals and innovators from NATO member countries, just days before the NATO Summit in Washington.

We were proud to present KYHIP’s value proposition, a plug-and-play VPN solution that gives you safe, stable access to your home network using your residential IP address. Unlike commercial VPNs, KYHIP doesn’t rely on public cloud infrastructure or shared IPs. It’s your network, wherever you go.

This event created opportunities for:

• Strategic B2B matchmaking
• Connections with policy-makers, corporate innovators, and VCs
• Visibility in front of European and international decision-makers in cybersecurity and digital resilience

More than just a pitch, it was a validation of how much private VPN technology matters in today’s shifting threat landscape. 👉 Explore the event recap here

🌍 Featured by YES!Delft: “Safe Browsing for Everyone”

To close the summer, KeepYourHomeIP was featured in an in-depth article published by YES!Delft titled “KeepYourHomeIP: Safe Browsing for Everyone.” The story outlines the roots of our company, from a personal frustration with unreliable remote work access, to a working prototype built during COVID-19, and finally to an international product helping remote workers all over the world.

The article captures KYHIP’s unique offering in the crowded VPN and cybersecurity space:

• Easy setup, no IT degree required
• Consistent IP geolocation for uninterrupted access to services
• Compatibility with corporate VPNs and other secure platforms
• Backed by real customer success stories and a growing global user base

This story is not just a badge of honor. It’s a reflection of everything we believe in: privacy, simplicity, and giving users full control over their connections. 👉 Read the full feature on YES!Delft

🔐 Why It Matters: Strengthening Our Foundation

These milestones, participation in the YES!Delft Cybersecurity Accelerator, our role at the Securing the Future event, and the YES!Delft feature, all reflect KYHIP’s deeper commitment to secure, borderless, and transparent remote access solutions.

What we’ve gained:

• Credibility through mentorship, expert review, and strategic ecosystem exposure
• Validation that KYHIP is solving a real-world problem, in a new way
• Momentum to expand product development, engage with B2B partners, and scale operations

We’re not just another VPN. We’re building private VPN infrastructure for a mobile-first world, and doing it with the support of Europe’s top innovation network.

📡 What’s Next for KeepYourHomeIP

This is only the beginning. Over the next few months, we’re focused on:

• Launching new customer onboarding tools and support content
• Expanding our partnerships with remote work platforms and enterprise IT teams
• Continuing to advocate for privacy-first, secure browsing across borders

We’re incredibly grateful to the YES!Delft team, the entire cybersecurity cohort, and all the mentors and collaborators who helped shape this next chapter of KYHIP.

The future of remote work is safe, stable, and rooted in your home network.
