Bynd with Christmas:
5 gifts ideas from our B2C portfolio companies
Hello everyone!
“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas” and you still have some shopping to do. You may wonder why Bynd Venture Capital is so interested in celebrating this season and we will tell you all about it right away.
As you know, for the last nine years, Bynd Venture Capital has invested in some of the most promising B2C startups in Portugal and Spain. We are talking about the shin guards chosen by some of the best players in the world, or the solidarity platform that supports relevant causes all around the world through buying and selling different stuff, among others.
We may look at them as innovative startups, but at the end of the day, they sell a product and they should be in our mindset when we are looking for the perfect gift for our Secret Santa or that aunt we only see once a year.
That being said, Bynd Venture Capital challenged five B2C portfolio startups to bynd with Christmas and have some special offers that we are now happy to share with you:
1.Offer a smile for a cause: Christmas is the right time to think about others and eSolidar is offering gifts that will give back smiles and hope to those who need it the most. From a jersey signed by the players of the recent crown Flamengo soccer team in Brazil to guitars signed by renown artists, you will be able to match a unique present with having a strong impact. You can also make a difference by supporting growth and being part of the eSolidar family through the equity crowdfunding campaign.
