Book 1
Go Getters
What do successful entrepreneurs have in common? Not talent, not luck - but the unwavering will to persevere when times get tough. In Go Getters, Ruud Hendriks and Richard Bross interview sixty Dutch entrepreneurs about the toughest moments in their careers.
From bankruptcy to breakthrough, from doubt to triumph - this book reveals the real story behind success. Inspiring, honest and directly applicable for anyone who wants to start a business or is already one.
Book 2
I'm Hungry
Is my business model right? How do I find investors? How do I improve my product? How do I finance further growth? What should I look out for when hiring new staff? Which strategic choices do I make?
In short, practical chapters, Ruud Hendriks and Patrick de Zeeuw explain how a young company can grow faster and better today. They clarify how strict selection enables investors to limit their risks and increase their returns.
Ruud Hendriks and Patrick de Zeeuw are co-founders of Startupbootcamp Global, which has so far accelerated over 1,700 high-tech startups.
The book is currently only available in Dutch.
