SeedBlink announces a new partnership with the esteemed Promocrat growth marketing agency. A collective endeavor focused on founder education and preparing startups for investment readiness, this collaboration aims to equip founders with an expansive wealth of free and insightful materials on topics such as financing, employee incentive plans such as ESOPs (Employee Stock Ownership Plans), marketing, and fostering transparent founder-investor relations.
SeedBlink, which recently expanded into Benelux with the takeover of Dutch crowdfund pioneer Symbid, is a well-known name in Central Europe as an investment platform for European tech startups. The platform, now offering Benelux companies and investors access to a European investment network, bridges the gap between tech companies and investors, stimulating growth and thereby helping to create a European tech hub.
The findings made by SeedBlink after nearly 6,000 European entrepreneurs competed for successful funding on SeedBlink inspired this collaborative project. A detailed whitepaper presents the consolidated core of these experiences, particularly from the elite 2% who passed the selection and met their fundraising goals. This document lays out a clear roadmap with 53 tried-and-true ideas for transforming hopeful businesses into efficient investment magnets.
“Europe is poised for a technological renaissance,” says Robbin Hoogstraten, Regional Manager for Benelux at SeedBlink. “Disseminating the accumulated knowledge becomes an essential duty for us to step up and compete with global competitors. Our prior experiences, triumphs, and failures alike, have taught us principles that can help emerging entrepreneurs accelerate their growth. Nimity, our equity management solution, and our educational arm in development with Promocrat are all part of this commitment.”
The whitepaper delves into crucial subjects for new and experienced entrepreneurs. It begins with “Fundamentals of a Top-Notch Business,” which serves as a solid basis. The following chapter deciphers “What Investors Want,” providing readers with insight into investor needs. The third chapter focuses on honing one’s “Fundraising Arsenal,” which ensures startups have the necessary tools and techniques. “Rock Your Marketing” is the fourth chapter, emphasizing the significance of effective marketing methods. Finally, “Post-Funding Best Practices” ensure businesses keep momentum and prosper after receiving financing.
The CEO of SeedBlink, Carmen Sebe, emphasizes the symbiotic nature of the founder-investor relationship, saying, “Anticipation steers success in startups.” Equity is more than just shares; it embodies the soul of the venture. Making wise first decisions paves the way for an innovative future.”
Alexandru Gavril, founder and CEO of Promocrat, emphasizes the changing nature of fundraising, stating that “fundraising is now less about mastering a single dance move and more about embracing the entirety of a festival, signifying community-driven growth.”
The two teams join forces on September 26, 3 PM CET, for a live webinar and Q&A where they will break down the whitepaper alongside key opinion leaders. Founders and investors interested can register for free here.
