SPACEBOY is a global entrepreneurial ecosystem founded by Daniel de Bruin and held by SPACEBOY INNOVATION HUB PTY LTD, a South African company. It combines online entrepreneurial education, client job-cards, analytics, a smart card community and a think tank into one platform, and it holds intellectual property and equity in a register of ventures. The platform is designated PLATFORM v0.0 and that version never changes.
PURPOSE
Entrepreneurship is the backbone of the economy.
Our purpose is to make the path to starting a business more accessible, rewarding and impactful - a new curriculum for entrepreneurs, built to teach, nurture and grow a global community.
THE ECOSYSTEM
THE PLATFORM IN DETAILOnline entrepreneurial educational platform.
Each entrepreneur receives step-by-step guidance and material to accelerate growth through our online platform, along with a personal profile and the option of a company profile and roadmap.
Why?Educating and developing entrepreneurs at scale through a reward system fosters an improved pipeline for all.
Companies seeking African market penetration and expansion.
Real clients with real needs, serviced through job-cards by entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs generate flexible and immediate revenue; clients receive rapid market expansion.
Why?Navigating the terrain through a decentralised scale-up service allows for rapid market expansion.
Analytics, education and a gig-economy in one ecosystem.
Insights offering digital roadmapping, milestones and progress tracking; eNtrepreneurship educational skills and development; platform-based client job-cards.
Why?Aspiring entrepreneurs need to learn entrepreneurship in an entrepreneurial manner to ensure sustainability. Cultivating an environment that exposes, teaches, develops and rewards progress accelerates growth.
Transparent startup portfolios.
Throughout the entrepreneurial process, the development and performance of the entrepreneur is tracked, as well as the progress of their startup company.
Why?Quality and transparent startup pipeline for incubators, accelerators, and investors.
A cloud-based community.
The Smart Card provides access to the client's informational material - the sale - and the entrepreneur's business information - the pitch.
Why?Whether entrepreneurs are freelancing through job-cards or representing their own business, The Platform provides a cloud-based information pack for both.
A full personal and business account with analytical feedback.
Access to a global network of job-cards, eNtrepreneurship, value-added services, strategic partner discounts, events, investment opportunities and toolkit upgrades.
Why?The SPACEBOY platform provides the UI/UX overview for entrepreneurs to understand and interpret their progress.
Human-learning. Internal job-cards.
Entrepreneurs can apply to become a Solutions Architect (SolAr) and pitch solutions to problems submitted by fellow entrepreneurs and clients.
Why?Ideas are common. Solutions, less so. Our community think tank leverages the talent within our platform and rewards entrepreneurs who solve societal challenges in an entrepreneurial manner.
SPACEBOY is a global entrepreneurial ecosystem: education, client job-cards, analytics, a smart card and a think tank in one platform that teaches, rewards and connects entrepreneurs.
