Embracing the future of work 💻🔥

Here's the deal. We’re not getting replaced by software.. today 😀.

But it's our mission to turn the daily grind into a joy for millions. So, whilst we argue about the true innovation power of artificial intelligence and the use of correct wordings, let's imagine a world where work isn't just a necessity but a source of inspiration and fulfilment. An environment where creativity thrives, innovation is routine, and every task brings a sense of achievement.

At Builders, we're not just building software, we're reimagining the workday to enrich lives. Enough with the preaching, here's the news 🖖🏻

From our universe 🪐

On the studio side 🌌

• Next to publishing content on our own experiences, we’ve launched a Playbook Podcast series to dive deep into the experiences and challenges of great entrepreneurs from our network. Like always we love putting learning into playbooks, so the podcast is all about that!🎙️💡Check out our first episode with Graciëlla van Vliet, founder of Closure and Jochem.ai. Watch the episode here.

• Every year we publish a reflection on the year. This was a year of resilience, innovation, and growth. We’ve put our principles to paper in our manifesto and shifted gears in shaping the future of technology and entrepreneurship. Not much stayed the same, whilst a lot stayed the same. Dive into our article to learn how we're upping our game, launching 4 innovative companies each year, and sharpening our focus on shaping the future of work.🌟 Read the recap here.

• Builders Investor House is coming up, and this time we're partnering up with Hodl. This scale-up offers investors access to the financial evolution with a carefully selected digital assets portfolio; a pioneering force in the realm of digital technology. We will yet again be up above the clouds, as Hodl hosts us at their office on the 41st floor. ☁️ This edition will also be the first one where the evening’s challenges will solely focus on Builders’ portfolio ventures 📨 Request your invite here.

• At Bazinga, we believe recruitment is broken. After rigorous validation, we’re now building a proof of concept in collaboration with design partners. Did this spark any fire, and curious to test it out? 🔥Reach out for an invite here. 📨

• EIR Estefania, joined the studio this month! Estefania is digging into big problems around learning and development in growing organisations. The first results are as shocking as relatable; there are big challenges in upskilling any organisation, and it has been combated in very traditional ways with no measurable outcomes. Sounds relatable? reach out!
