Case

Techleap

Creating a documentary series exploring the human side of the entrepreneurial journey in tech

Techleap is a network organisation envoyed by Prince Constantijn. Over the last 3 years they’ve created synergies between leading Dutch tech companies and hosted scale-up programs and seminars to strengthen and grow the Dutch tech industry. 

Challenge 

Being a founder can be a lonely journey. So after winning a competitive pitch, Foster & Kin was tasked to create a content series that bridges across all of Techleap’s domains. Our challenge was to create content to strengthen the Techleap community and connect to a wider audience offering actionable insights.

Strategy

Where most entrepreneurial books, documentaries and other media content typically glorifies the classic rags to riches entrepreneurial hustle, the honest truths about building and scaling a business are missing. ‘All-in’ portrays the entrepreneurial journey from a human and more personal lens.


Output

Our 7 episode series depicts the often underexposed - human side of the entrepreneurial journey in tech - personal stories from 10 highly appealing tech scale-up founders and business leaders. We talked about their fears and struggles, about keeping a balance between work and their private life, ethics, navigating a company’s role in society and staying sane while scaling.
