Podcast: The human side of scaling your business
Podcast: The human side of scaling your business
Without the right team, your factory won’t run. But what does the “right team’’ actually look like for a biobased, capex-heavy startup - especially in the messy middle between pilot and demo plant? Every hire matters, and team decisions can be make-or-break, while still being short on resources. What's the right mix when every hire counts? In this episode, we unpack how founders and CEOs build technical and commercial teams that can grow with the business. From co-founder roles to early operator hires, from interim expertise to letting go of roles you once owned - we explore what it takes to get the right people on board at the right time. Listen to this podcast with Joost Paques (Paques Biomaterials) and Thijs Bosch (The protein Brewery)

Talentize supports organizations in reducing employee turnover and absence reates, with a strong focus on each person’s unique talent.
Henriette van der Meij (Director Vrijwilligers Centrale Amsterdam) "So incredibly valuable and fun to work with the entire organization on talent development using the CliftonStrengths method. It provides great insight into your own talents and those of your colleagues. I also thoroughly enjoyed attending the masterclass with three colleagues, very inspiring and educational. We are now working on the implementation, and there is so much to learn there as well. The trainers are fantastic! It’s a real enrichment for your team. I can recommend it to everyone!"

Illustrations by Bram is a solo practice that creates business illustrations and workshops to help innovation professionals communicate complex ideas quickly and clearly.
Floor Dijkmans (Learning manager of Circular Factory) "Bram viasualised the Circular Factory development framework for us by transforming a functional table into a clear, engaging visual design. The result makes the different steps involved in scaling a capex-heavy startup immediately understandable, while also being enjoyable to look at. It keeps people engaged with the story and really helps us to communicate the framework to founders."
Templates & Tools
Clockify: time tracking software
Clockify is relatively affordable (~€400/year for the basic package) and supports hour- or service-based businesses. It’s useful for consultancy and grant projects, streamlines subsidy audits, and reduces audit costs (registered auditors charge €120–250/hour, so every five minutes saved benefits the P&L).

CFO Centre
A strong group of professionals for CFO work. I was able to secure an incentivized contract (sharing risk with an upside upon success).
