Birdhouse is building a tribe that fuels founders to turn their startup into rockets on the way to become unicorns. We do this by offering a structured way to expose our network of experienced founders and c-level execs so that their involvement becomes highly valuable. At the start of the journey, we run a 12-week intense hybrid program (4 weeks offline, 8 weeks online), resulting in the right fundamentals for further growth and a high investor readiness level. Closely linked, Birdhouse Ventures, an early stage VC fund that invests initial tickets in every company that joins the tribe, has the capacity to follow-on invest until cumulatively 1,5 Mio EUR per company.

We invest in people who move fast. At RDY, we back ambitious Belgian tech founders at the earliest stage, even before revenue, who put their product in the hands of users and prove they’re ready to build smarter. We look for founders who want to move faster, think bigger, and demand more of themselves than anyone else around them. Sound like you?

We organize the TEDxFlanders events because we like Ideas Worth Spreading, the international motto of TED (What is this TED, anyway?). All of us are into creativity and improving things. Some interesting facts & figures about us: - The oldest TEDx organisation in Belgium and the Benelux - The 6th oldest in Europe - Founded in 2008 and became a TEDx in July 2009 - More than 100 volunteers - More than 10 million views of our talks on Youtube - Our first event was the 65th event on the TEDx list Because we bring together a large number of creative people, amazing things can happen. The organization has grown from a small meeting amongst friends to what it is today, a huge event where more than 1000 people share ideas and thoughts. Join our community and share some of that positive energy!

Il ne sagit, en aucun cas, dune place de marché entre clients et fournisseurs. De digital managers club is de ontmoetingsplaats voor het kruin binnen het digitale milieu in België. De leden worden geselecteerd op basis van het co-optation systeem, met als doel een merendeel aan adverteerders binnen de cirkel te integreren en te behouden. De digital managers club is gesticht op basis van het delen en uitwisselen van kennis tussen de verschillende leden, en dit binnen een conviviale en informele sfeer. Het gaat hier in geen enkel geval om een marktplaats tussen klant en leverancier.
