Holland Startup

06/10/2022

What does your journey look like as you build a startup with Holland Startup?

It starts with meeting other founders and people who want to launch a startup just like you do. You "date," work, and perform together, so you can see if you're a good match. At the same time, we'll help you come up with a startup idea: the problem to solve and a customer to solve it for.

The co-founding and ideation process is better done simultaneously rather than sequentially. Working together and seeing if you can get progress is a good predictor of future success.

This brings you to the first big step: the setting up of your company.

From there, we'll show you how to do things step by step. At each step, Holland Startup will give you money until you are ready to raise Seed. When that happens, we'll be done and step back to make room for the next investor.

Yesterday we had the pleasure to welcome Norbert Kleijn who hosted a masterclass on how to find your co-founder.

Together with 30 aspiring entrepreneurs, we explored what to look for- and how to find your professional partner.

As Norbert said, realistically your co-founder relationship might last longer than your current romantic one, it might also change your entire life path.

A special thank you to two of our founders, Per Roseth and Rob Gijzen, who joined the networking borrel to talk about how they created their match.

Starting a business is similar to having a baby; finding the right partner is crucial.

Were you unable to attend, but want to find a co-founder and start a startup?
