#13 What does it take to start and grow a social enterprise? – With Microlab Founder Luuk Visser
A new first for Shots of Purpose! A four-person episode, with special guest Luuk Visser. Luuk is the co-founder of Microlab, a really cool and fast-growing co-working space in Eindhoven, NL. Microlab started as Atelier Eindhoven with only a handful of people, and within 5 years has grown to a space of over 12000m² and with over 700 people in 200 companies.
In this episode we talk with Luuk about how he wanted better equipment for his woodworking hobby, and ending up building a company instead. Furthermore, Luuk tells us about what it takes to make such growth happen (hint: a great team), what his challenges are and where his ambitions are taking him in the foreseeable future.
