This is how a brilliant idea can make an impact

Do you have a great idea for a business, but are you struggling with how to turn it into reality? You are not alone. More entrepreneurs are in a Catch-22 situation: you need a product to obtain financing, but to develop that product, you need money or a team. In this blog, Remco Snijders, Business Technology Consultant and Design Sprint Facilitator at Quatronic, explains how you can overcome this challenge and still achieve your entrepreneurial dream.

The Catch-22 for entrepreneurs

Many entrepreneurs have great ideas, but get stuck when they need to turn these ideas into a concrete product or service. After all, you need a product to attract investors or customers, but without initial investment or the right team, the idea remains just a dream. A dilemma that can sink in your shoes, especially if you have the necessary skills, insights and expertise, but you don't have the means to make your idea a reality.

Quatronic's role in realising entrepreneurial dreams

At Quatronic, we've developed a unique approach to help entrepreneurs like you. Not only do we build a solution for you, we are also happy to think along with you strategically. Technology is just one aspect of business success. We also help you devise your processes and strategies. This is how we work together to realize your entrepreneurial dream.

In practice: Next Energy and MO the movement

An inspiring example is our collaboration with Next Energy. About a year and a half ago, a former colleague came up with an idea for a company: an energy supplier that offers dynamic prices. Such an innovative concept requires considerable IT support. For example, there had to be a system to retrieve the meter readings, an app for customers and an app for employees to keep track of all the administration. The founder of NextEnergy asked if we could help. This resulted in a unique collaboration where we, as Quatronic, became the co-founder of the new company NextEnergy. Together, we focused not only on technical implementation, but also on strategy and business processes. The company's growth exceeded all our expectations. Instead of the expected few thousand customers, the number of customers quickly grew to ten thousand. In doing so, the company also rapidly transformed from a cautious start-up to a successful company with a hundred employees. Another more recent example is MO the movement, a platform that links employees to volunteer NGOs. We developed the platform and, in our capacity as co-founder, we also helped the company take the first steps in its development. In February this year, the platform will go live and we will be able to welcome the first customers.

DThe ongoing collaboration and evolution

The unique thing is: our collaboration doesn't stop with the launch of a product. We stay involved as technology partners so that we can keep innovating and adapting to new needs and challenges. This ensures that your company not only starts with a strong base, but is also able to grow and adapt to the changing market.
