New Voices Foundation’s Post

Shortly before the SevenVentures Pitch Day final in 2022, BEARS WITH BENEFITS® were part of the New Com podcast for the first time. Now, at the beginning of this year’s application period, the host of the podcast series Jason Modemann invited the 2022 winners again into his studio to find out what they think of the event two years after they held up the cheque for 3 million euros in media budget. 🙌🏼 💡 So, what happened after? Laurence Saunier, co-founder and CEO of BEARS WITH BENEFITS explains: "When we analyzed our quotas and campaigns at the end of 2023, we realized that our new customer rate was extremely high, almost 100%. And not only that: our turnover increased significantly. In 2022, we had a turnover of EUR 14 million. At the end of 2023 after the TV campaign, it had grown to EUR 31 million. […] A significant part of this success is due to winning the SevenVentures Pitch Day and the media prize." 📈 And even next to the prize, Laurence sees advantages of participating in the Pitch Day: “If you make it to the final, the event is worthwhile simply because of the excellent contacts you can make with other participating start-ups and the jury of industry leaders." 🐾 You want to follow in the footsteps (or paw prints?) of the BEARS? Then apply now for the SevenVentures Pitch Day 2024: https://lnkd.in/efPQMvP6

NEW EPISODE! What does it mean to educate for the collective #longnow? Perhaps, this is the question we should be asking, as opposed to maintaining our educational obsession with short-term individual success metrics. Homa Sabet Tavangar is absolutely asking us all this question, along with many other #bigquestions (with her colleagues Will Richardson and Eric Dozier)! In this week's episode, Homa and Tim get into what schools are seeing as #sacred - especially as the needs of our young people and the world shift. How might we move from a 'portrait of a graduate' to a 'portrait of an #ancestor'?  Why is it important to be really understanding who is being ‘unheard’ in your community? The importance of a radical imagination to uncover our 'irresistible futures'. Check out this lovely conversation here: https://lnkd.in/eYc7ayU9
