Through decades of experience in the financial sector, SME sector and IT, we noticed that organizations with 10 to 1,000 employees did not have the opportunity to create liquidity in their share capital. That is why we decided to merge the financial world with IT and engagement, energy and enterprise. Time for change! Meet Eyevestor, the share company, making a market available for 99% of all companies and all people not yet active with share investing. On the one hand, Eyevestor ensures that entrepreneurs can ‘answer their calling’ and do more with equity. On the other hand, we involve individuals in investing and participating in the shares of companies and organizations they believe in. We connect motivated ambassadors and support entrepreneurs with the deployment of their equity, their shares. Eyevestor – The Share Company. Energising enterprise!

Startups zijn wereldwijd hot en ook Nederland koestert deze vernieuwende bedrijven in de hoop dat ze uitgroeien tot duurzaam succesvolle ondernemingen. Toch faalt bijna 90%. De grote uitdaging bestaat er dus uit om van meer startups daadwerkelijke sterren te maken.
Branding vervult hierbij een belangrijke rol omdat het kan helpen een jonge onderneming bekendheid en betekenis te geven. Startup branding draait vooral om ‘becoming’.
In dit boek worden veel cases gepresenteerd en een praktisch model om zelf als startup meer grip te krijgen op de zo gewenste duurzame groei, het Brand Coding Canvas. Het model geeft via 10 C’s concreet invulling aan het proces van ‘business blueprinting’ waarbij het merkconcept als DNA fungeert voor het op een unieke en relevante manier succesvol tot leven brengen van een startup.
