Version 1.0 · Last updated 25 September 2026

This policy explains what personal data Redefine collects when you visit redefine.nl, become a member, use the studio apps or come to an event, why we collect it, who we share it with, how long we keep it, and what rights you have. We wrote it to match what the platform actually does.

1. Who we are

Redefine is an Amsterdam venture studio. We are the controller of the personal data described here, under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Dutch implementation act (UAVG).

ControllerRedefine

AddressSchapensteeg 16B, 1017 BG Amsterdam, the Netherlands

Privacy contacthello@redefine.nl (subject “Privacy”)

Members also receive the GDPR notice in Appendix C of the Master Terms. That appendix summarises the same processing; this policy is the complete version and covers visitors and other people we deal with too.

2. What we collect and why

We only collect what we need for the purposes below. For each, we name the legal basis the GDPR requires: contract (needed to provide what you signed up for, Art. 6(1)(b)), legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)), legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f), balanced against your interests), or consent (Art. 6(1)(a), which you can withdraw at any time).

Your account

Name, email address and password, or the name, email address and profile photo your sign-in provider shares when you sign in with Google. Your password is handled by our authentication provider and stored only as a secure hash; we never see it. When you choose a password we check whether it appears in known data breaches: only the first five characters of a hash of the password leave your browser, so the password itself is never shared. If you turn on two-factor authentication, we store the authenticator factor. Basis: contract.

Your profile

What you choose to add: photo, title, location, bio, skills, rate, links, story chapters, the ventures you work on and your membership tier. Basis: contract. Section 3 explains who can see it.

Membership and venture records

Your tier and how you hold it (subscription, organisation licence or invitation), invitations and applications, seats and roles at events, offers and contracts, hours and contributions, Invested Value and equity positions, funding requests, commitments, signatures and consents, report records, the IP register, and a log of the legal documents you accepted and when. These records are what your ownership rests on, so we keep them carefully. Basis: contract; legal obligation for tax and bookkeeping records; legitimate interest for the equity and IP registers, the audit trail and dispute resolution.

Payments

Paid memberships and licences are handled by Stripe. We receive your name, email address, billing address, VAT number where given, the brand, last four digits and expiry date of your card, and the status of your subscription and invoices. We never receive or store your full card number. Basis: contract; legal obligation for invoices.

Business accounts

For an organisation: its name, legal name, Chamber of Commerce (KvK) number, VAT number, address, billing contact and the people it invites. A KvK number is checked against the Dutch business register. The organisation’s owners and admins see who holds one of its licences. Basis: contract.

What you create

Posts, comments and reactions; messages and conversations; event pages, boards, tasks and projects; venture pages and investor materials; files and images you upload. Messages are visible to the people in the conversation. Redefine staff look at your content only when needed to give support, keep the platform safe or meet a legal obligation. Basis: contract.

Events

Ticket reservations, seat applications and your role at an event. At Labs we may take photos and recordings; you can opt out at registration or on the day. Dietary and accessibility needs are used only with your consent and deleted within 30 days after the event. Basis: contract; consent for dietary and accessibility needs; legitimate interest for event photos, with the right to opt out.

3D scans and avatars

Imagineers and Architects can be scanned so that an avatar represents them at the table. We process the scan and the avatar only with your explicit consent. Basis: explicit consent (Art. 9(2)(a) where applicable), which you can withdraw at any time.

Email and notifications

We send emails you need, such as confirmations, invitations, security messages and notices about your seats, offers and ventures. Newsletters and other updates are sent only if you agreed to that topic, and every one carries an unsubscribe link. We keep a record of what was sent so a message is never sent twice. We do not currently send text messages; if we add them, it will be only with your separate consent. Basis: contract for service emails; consent for newsletters and updates.

Contact, chat and requests

When you use the chat, a contact form, a ticket reservation or an application form, we receive your name, email address and message, and reply personally. Basis: legitimate interest in answering you, or steps before a contract.

Usage analytics

Only if you switch on “Usage analytics” under Privacy & security do we record page views: the page, the referring page, the screen width, a random session number and, if you are signed in, your member id. This stays in our own database. We use no third-party analytics or advertising trackers. Basis: consent.

Security and technical data

Our hosting provider processes your IP address and browser details to deliver the site, block abuse and limit how often forms can be sent. Basis: legitimate interest in a secure, working service.

People we may work with

To find partners, sponsors, venues and future members, we keep business contact details of people outside the platform: name, role, organisation, public professional links and notes of our contact. This comes from public sources, such as public event listings and company websites, or from you directly. You can ask us to remove you, and we keep a short record so that you are not added again. Basis: legitimate interest in developing the studio.

3. What other people can see

Your profile is public. Your name, photo, title, bio, skills and the ventures you work on appear in the members directory and on your member page, which anyone can open, including people who are not signed in. Search engines may index it. You decide what you add, and you can change or remove it at any time.
Posts marked public can be read by anyone; other posts only by signed-in members.
Venture participants see the contribution and equity records of the ventures they take part in, as the Master Terms require. The Architect of a venture sees the contributions to it.
Organisations that pay for your membership see that you hold one of their licences.
Admins of Redefine see membership, billing and moderation information needed to run the studio.

4. Genie, our AI assistant

Genie helps members draft venture briefs, boards, roles and event plans, and writes short introductions on Home. When you use it, we send your message and the context it needs (for example the brief and board of the venture you are working on) to OpenRouter, which passes it to the AI model that answers. We record each request (who, which feature, cost) to keep usage within budget. We do not sell this content or use it for advertising.

Figures that affect ownership, such as Invested Value, equity and fees, are never produced by AI: they are calculated by fixed formulas under the Master Terms. Genie makes suggestions; you decide what to keep.

6. Data outside the EU

Our database is in the EU. Some providers above are based in, or can process data in, the United States. Such transfers take place under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework where the provider is certified, or under the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.

7. How long we keep it

Usage analytics24 months

Business contacts outside the platform2 years after our last contact, or until you object

When something is deleted, we keep a short record that it was removed and when, so it stays removed.

8. Cookies and browser storage

We do not use advertising or tracking cookies. The site keeps a few things in your browser’s local storage so it works: your sign-in session, your preferences, unsent drafts and changes waiting to sync when you are offline. Our hosting provider may set a strictly necessary security cookie to block automated abuse. Usage analytics runs only with your consent (section 2).

9. Security

All traffic is encrypted. Access to data in our database is checked per record, so members and staff can reach only what their role allows. You can protect your account with two-factor authentication, and once it is on, the server requires it. Passwords that appear in known breaches are refused. If a breach affecting your data occurs, we report it to the Dutch Data Protection Authority and inform you where the law requires.

10. Your rights

You have the right to access your data, to have it corrected, to have it erased where we are not required to keep it, to restrict or object to its processing (including our legitimate interests), to receive it in a portable format, and to withdraw consent at any time without affecting earlier processing. Much of this you can do yourself in your profile and under Privacy & security. For anything else, email hello@redefine.nl. We answer within one month and may ask you to confirm your identity.

If you are not satisfied with how we handle your data, you can complain to the Dutch Data Protection Authority, the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens.

11. Other points

Age. Membership is for people aged 18 and over.
Automated decisions. We make no decisions about you by automated means alone that have legal or similarly significant effects.
Changes. When we change this policy, we update the version and date above. Members are told about material changes before they take effect.

12. Contact

Questions about this policy or your data: hello@redefine.nl, or by post to Redefine, Schapensteeg 16B, 1017 BG Amsterdam.

01 · Build track

The builder path

Earn equity through work.

Three ways to build inside Redefine, from contributing remotely to running the room. Every path pays from the same Invested Value pool, in the mix the run carries: cash, equity, or both, documented against the same formula. Join free as an Expert and earn from your first event. Step up to Imagineer when you want to lead tables and keep more of every share. Apply for Architect when you are ready to design the rooms other people earn in. The mechanics below show exactly where every euro, cash or equity, ends up, and you can move up whenever you are ready.

Equity mechanics

Where your earnings go

Both fees come out of the total Invested Value pool before anything is distributed. Two parallel deductions from one base: neither fee is calculated on the remainder after the other.

Expert

75%

net retention, from the gross pool

-15%of the pool, to Redefine

0%Architect fee: exempt

Architect

85%+

net retention + override, from the gross pool

-15%of the pool, to Redefine

+10%of Experts’ hours, from each Expert

◆

Both are calculated from the same two numbers: your verified rate and your logged hours, and both appear in the Event Report next to everyone else’s. One flat deduction from the gross pool, same net for both. The cash portion of the 15% is Redefine’s revenue; the equity portion is the Redefine stake in the venture. Same 15%, two currencies. And 75% is a rate on hours, not a rate on Experts: an Expert who contributes funding or equipment keeps 85% of it, like any funder, because the Architect fee does not touch capital. Everything is itemised in the Event Report, disputable for 14 days. Fee Schedule v4.2.

Rates

Verified once

Every rate here is verified, and every member can see every other member’s.

Ownership on this platform is your rate multiplied by your hours. That means an unverified rate is not a detail, it is a way to take equity from the people sitting next to you. So we verify every rate once, against the market, and then we make it visible to fellow members.

You still set your own number. We are confirming it reflects what your expertise actually commands, not judging whether you are worth it. Employed and never sent an invoice? Your rate is set against the market rate for your expertise and experience. There is no band to fit into: your rate is yours. Once the skill trees are built, some of the perks you unlock there will move it.

There are no rate bands. Every member has a rate of their own, verified once. Once the skill trees are built, some of the perks they unlock will move your rate.

Rates are visible to members, not to the public web. Most of our members have employers, and what you are worth is not their business.

Founding cohort

Founding Angel

Ten seats. First look, for as long as you stay active.

A Founding Angel sees every venture seven days before it opens to other Angels, and can take up to a quarter of the opening allocation in that window. Deal flow is not crowded today. It will be. The founding window is worth exactly as much as this studio turns out to be worth, which is the point.

The window stays live while you have allocated at least once in the preceding rolling twelve months. And there is no fee advantage: every contribution on this platform pays the same 15%, capital included, and that is not something we discount for anyone.

02 · Invest track

The Angel path

Fund what you watched.

A different path entirely. You do not build. You back the teams you saw deliver under real pressure. There is no membership fee and there are no pitch decks: you attend Nexus events as an observer, watch how a team scopes, argues, and ships when the clock is real, and only then decide where your capital goes. Every ownership claim is backed by documented Invested Value, so you are pricing work you witnessed, not promises you were shown. Evidence first, capital second.

Invest Track

Angel

Invest in what you've seen work.

No membership fee. No pitch decks. You attend Nexus events as an observer, watch teams build under real pressure, then allocate capital into ventures that proved themselves in front of you.

03 · Operate track

Run what gets built

Cash work inside live ventures.

Builders work on the business and it is the only work that earns equity here. Operators work in the business: service delivery, support, fulfilment, back office. Cash on commercial terms, under a separate agreement, entirely outside the venture-building framework. No Invested Value, no Virtual Shares, no platform fee, no dispute window, no equity of any kind.

It is not a membership tier and it does not compete with one. It exists so a Builder does not become an Operator by default: a venture that reaches customers needs someone to run it, and it does not have to be the person who built it.

04 · Pricing FAQ

Straight answers

Fair questions, straight answers.

The questions prospective members actually ask before committing, answered the way we answer them in the room.

What does "free" really mean for Expert?+

No subscription, no card. Nexus events are included and you join remotely. Craft Labs are priced per seat, set per event between €35 and €95. Guests are welcome, but only members claim paid work from the task board and earn Invested Value there, at standard fees. Skill Labs carry their own price per event, and as a member you pay 20% less than non-members. Culture Labs are members only, priced per seat.

Every Nexus produces one Invested Value pool. Two deductions come out of it before anything is distributed: 15% of the pool to Redefine, and 10% of the Experts’ portion to the Architect who hosted the room. Nothing is deducted twice. You keep 75% of your share, in whichever mix of cash and equity the run pays out.

When should I upgrade to Imagineer?+

When you want to negotiate rather than accept. Three things change. You lead tables in person instead of contributing remotely. You are exempt from the 10% Architect fee, so your retention goes from 75% to 85%. And you can counter-offer on the reward mix: the Architect sets the cash and equity terms for a run, and as an Imagineer you can come back with different ones before you commit. Experts see the terms in the brief and either take the event or pass on it.

You also get analytics across the ventures you lead. Ventures themselves are created by Architects.

Can I switch tiers mid-month?+

Upgrades take effect immediately with prorated billing. Downgrades take effect at the next billing cycle. Equity is never affected by tier changes.

What happens to equity if I cancel?+

It stays yours. Cancelling ends your access to events and platform tools, but your documented Invested Value and the Virtual Shares it earned are permanently recorded. They keep diluting as new contributions enter the pool, as everyone’s do. If a venture reaches break-even and incorporates, you receive your shares whether you are still a member or not.

How do the two fees work?+

Both fees come out of the total Invested Value pool for an event, before anything is distributed. 15% of the pool to Redefine. Every member, every venture, no exceptions. 10% of the Invested Value that Experts earned from hours, to the Architect who hosted the room. Imagineers and Architects do not contribute to this, and neither does capital or any other contributed resource, whoever contributed it. The Architect fee is a share of directed work, not a share of money.

No fee is charged on top of another fee. What that leaves you: 75% as an Expert, 85% as an Imagineer or Architect. An Architect also receives that 10% override on the Experts’ portion at events they host.

Worked example. A Nexus produces a €100,000 pool. Experts contributed €60,000 of it, Imagineers €25,000, the Architect €15,000. Redefine takes €15,000. The Architect takes €6,000, being 10% of the Experts’ €60,000. Every Expert keeps 75% of their own share, every Imagineer 85%, and the Architect keeps 85% of theirs plus the €6,000.

One clarification worth stating plainly, because it will otherwise be found in an Event Report and argued about: 75% is a rate on hours, not a rate on Experts. An Expert who contributes funding or equipment keeps 85% of it, like any other funder, because the Architect fee does not apply to capital.

Both fees apply to cash and equity alike, and they are taken in the same form as the payout. The cash portion of our 15% is revenue. The equity portion is the Redefine stake in the venture. Same 15%, two currencies. Everything is itemised in the Event Report and disputable for 14 days.

Can I be both a member and an Angel investor?+

Yes. The three tracks are independent: Build (the membership tiers) earns equity through work, Invest (Angel) allocates capital, and Operate is cash work inside live ventures on commercial terms, outside the venture-building framework. You can be an Imagineer earning equity AND an Angel deploying capital into other ventures. Many members do both.

What is the Nexus day pass?+

€99 buys a physical seat at the table for one Nexus event, open to Experts. You earn your normal cash and equity for the day.

From the experts

Expert voices

Built from desks everywhere

Experts who plugged in remotely, shipped real work, and own a piece of what they helped build. Different cities, different domains, the same pattern: a challenge lands, a solution ships, and the equity is recorded by the time the laptop closes. Their words, not ours.

What you gain

More than a seat

What the Expert seat gives you.

Six things you walk away with: paid work, lasting ownership, a real portfolio, and the freedom to build from anywhere.

You risk nothing to start

No subscription, no credit card, no catch. Your membership is free for good and a remote seat at every Nexus costs you nothing. Labs and on-site day passes are paid.

Paid against your verified rate

Your verified rate, paid out in the mix the run carries: cash, equity, or both. The mix is set before invitations go out and appears in your brief 48 hours ahead: you accept the event or you don't. Cash claims invoice once the 14-day dispute window closes; if the venture cash pool is short, the unpaid remainder converts to equity.

You build a real portfolio

Every venture you work on becomes a company you can point to. Not a case study after the fact. Shipped products, your name on them, and equity that proves you were there.

You keep your equity for good

Leave whenever you like and your Virtual Shares stay on the record. When a venture hits break-even and incorporates, your shares convert whether you are still a member or not.

You work from anywhere

Plug in from Barcelona, Lisbon, or your kitchen table with full remote access to every event. When your solution lands in the room, you are not the remote one. You are the one who moved the venture forward.

You unlock every event

Nexus comes included, where you earn. A Craft Lab seat is priced per event, Skill Labs cost you 20% less than non-members pay, and Culture Labs open up for members only. The more you show up, the more comes back to you.

Rates

Verified once

Every rate here is verified, and every member can see every other member’s.

Ownership on this platform is your rate multiplied by your hours. That means an unverified rate is not a detail, it is a way to take equity from the people sitting next to you. So we verify every rate once, against the market, and then we make it visible to fellow members.

There are no rate bands. Every member has a rate of their own, verified once. Once the skill trees are built, some of the perks they unlock will move your rate.

Rates are visible to members, not to the public web. Most of our members have employers, and what you are worth is not their business.

Rate bonuses

How your rate moves

Your rate is not fixed for as long as you are here.

Two things move it. New evidence, if you get promoted or raise your rate card. Or your track record here: what you achieve in Skill Labs will earn small rate bonuses on top of your verified rate. How those bonuses are earned and sized is still being refined; we publish it before it counts.

That is what a Skill Lab is also for. The session costs you a few hours and a member price, and the achievement it banks is what those bonuses will build on.

Format

One day, one prototype

Scattered meetings become one build.

A venture normally dies in the gaps between meetings. A Nexus closes them. Dozens of separate calls, table sessions and remote check-ins run against one shared table plan, on one clock, toward one deliverable. It is less like a meeting series and more like a hackathon: everyone building the same thing, in the same day, until a prototype exists that did not exist this morning.

A Nexus builds a venture. A Craft Lab builds the studio, and hands out the work. A Skill Lab builds you. A Culture Lab builds the room all three depend on.

One vision. One event. Multiple rooms.

The ultimate Venture-building event

A Nexus turns a table plan into a working prototype in a single day. An Architect sets the scope and the rules of equity, Imagineers run the tables, and Experts join remotely to fill the seats. Everyone who builds earns cash and a share of what ships.

One day · Configurable tables · Cash + equity · Remote or in the room

Your work becomes the product

Every deliverable tracked. Every hour compensated. Every equity point permanent.

Deliver

Tracked and compensated

Live

Deliver from anywhere, shape the outcome

Five things happen around your work during every event. Scroll, or pick a topic.

Hex Configurator

Thorough briefing

Venture context, team, and your domain land 48 hours before the clock starts.

Genie

AI-enhanced collaboration

Your work reaches the room instantly, with quality analysis and tracking built in.

Projects

Imagineer-led sprints

Clear briefs and defined deliverables. The hardest problems go to the best equipped.

Service Design

Design at speed

Morning architecture, afternoon deep work. Concept to prototype inside one day.

Reports

Post-event report

Who attended, what shipped, equity distributed. Your dashboard updates within 24 hours.

Thorough briefing

You arrive prepared, not cold

Event briefs land 48 hours early. You know the venture context, the team composition, and your assigned domain before the clock starts. When the Imagineer assigns your first task, you are already thinking about the solution.

Voices

In their words

What it is like, from the people who built it.

Architects, Imagineers, and Experts on how a Nexus actually feels, and what they walked away with once the laptops closed.

Earnings

Cash and equity

Cash now. Equity that compounds.

Every event pays you in cash and Invested Value. The cash clears now. The Invested Value locks until your venture holds two months of break-even, then converts to tradeable shares that keep climbing.

What one Expert takes home over seven events

Cash paid Equity value

Cumulative, per Expert · illustrative

2×equity over cash by the seventh event

Cost

Equity, not entry

Outsiders pay to get in. You are paid to build.

A Nexus is closed to the public and runs into the hundreds for the few who are invited. As a member you walk in for nothing, earn your rate, and leave with equity. The only line item you can choose is a physical chair in the room.

Non-member

from€295

guest seat · if invited

Invite-driven and capped. Most never get a seat at any price, and a guest never earns from the room.

Not a ticket. You join free, claim your full rate in cash for the event (invoiced after the 14-day dispute window), and earn equity on top of it.

Physical seat · optional

€99

Nexus day pass · Experts

For Experts who want the table in person, for one day at a time.

Fees land on what you earn, never on entry: 15% to Redefine and 10% to the Architect who built the room. Your net equity retention as an Expert is 75%, and rises to 85% as an Imagineer. The reward mix is set before invitations go out and appears in your brief. You accept the event or you don't.

Value

More than a seat

What the seat gives you that a paycheck cannot.

The cash and the equity are above. These are what you keep long after the laptops close: ownership, a portfolio, a network, and the freedom to build from anywhere.

The equity is yours to keep
Your Invested Value is on the record the moment you contribute. Leave whenever you like; when the venture hits break-even and incorporates, your shares convert whether you are still a member or not.
Contribute Accrue Convert
A portfolio of companies, not case studies
Every venture you touch ships with your name on it. Not a write-up after the fact: real products you helped build, and equity that proves you were in the room.
A network that finds you
Architects, Imagineers, and Angels watch you work under real pressure. That is how the next invite, the next venture, and the next backer reach you, without a single cold email.
Build from anywhere
Remote by default, with full access to every Nexus. When your work lands in the room, you are not the remote one. You are the one who moved the venture forward.
You sharpen every time
Each Nexus pairs you with specialists, and the Labs raise your craft between events. Your rate climbs faster here than it would in any single job.

Earnings

Equity from every Expert

You don't earn a rate. You earn the room.

An Architect opens the Nexus, sets the scope and the equity split, and takes 10% of the Invested Value each Expert earns from hours, in cash and equity alike. Your upside scales with the size and quality of the room you assemble, not the hours you put in.

What an Architect earns as the room grows

Per venture you originate · illustrative

10%of the Invested Value each Expert earns from hours routes to you, cash and equity alike, on top of founder-level equity in the ventures you open.

Every builder

You earn from each Expert who ships in your room, never from your own billed hours.

Founder equity

A founding stake in every venture you originate and host.

Scales with the room

Ten builders or fifty, your take grows with the room you assemble.

Open the Nexus Set scope & split Builders ship 10% of each personal share routes to you

Cost

Equity, not entry

€495 a month. Every room you open.

An Architect is not a ticket holder. You bring the venture and the problem worth a day of the room. The platform supplies the builders, the tools, and the equity ledger; you supply the direction.

Outside founder

€495

/mo · by application · unlimited events

Bring the venture; the platform brings the room. You decide the equity split before the day starts, and there is no per-event fee.

What you take

10%

of every Expert's hours-based share

On top of founder equity in the venture. The stronger the room, the more your override compounds.

The platform takes 15% of the Invested Value pool. Your 10% Architect fee is 10% of the Invested Value each Expert earns from hours, in cash and equity alike, taken alongside the platform fee, not on top of it, and you hold founder equity in the venture itself.

Value

More than a seat

What hosting the room gives you that capital cannot.

The equity is above. These are what compound every time you open a Nexus: a roster, a reputation, and a pipeline of ventures that ship.

Every builder's output compounds your stake
You earn from each Expert who ships in your room. Build a stronger room and your equity grows without adding a single hour of your own.
Host Builders ship Your equity compounds
You set the terms
Scope, team, and the equity split are yours to define before the clock starts. The room forms around the problem you decided was worth a day.
The platform runs the room, you run the venture
Payments, tooling, scanning, and the equity ledger are handled. You stay on the one thing only a founder can do: direction.
A roster that has shipped for you
Every Nexus leaves you with builders who delivered under real pressure, and a reason for the best of them to come back.

Earnings

The work you direct

You turn the brief into shippable work, and own a piece of what ships.

An Imagineer runs a table on-site, breaks the venture's vision into tasks, and leads the Experts who execute. You hold a membership, earn Invested Value on the work you direct, and keep a higher share of it than anyone else in the room.

What an Imagineer takes home leading tables

Per venture you lead · illustrative

85%net equity retention on the Invested Value you earn leading a table, the highest share of any builder in the room.

Lead a table

Run a table at every Nexus and direct the Experts who ship the work.

Earn on what you direct

Invested Value accrues on the whole table's output, not only your own hours.

Fees land on what you earn, never on entry: 15% to the platform. No Architect fee for Imagineers, which is why your net equity retention is 85%, the highest of any builder.

Value

More than a seat

What leading the table gives you that a title cannot.

The equity is above. These are what you keep across every venture you lead: ownership of the output, first pick of the work, and a room that watches you run it.

Equity on every table you lead
You earn Invested Value on the output of your whole table, at 85% retention. Lead well and your stake outgrows any single contributor's.
Lead Table ships Your equity compounds
First pick of the hardest problems
You decide how the venture's vision becomes tasks, and which ones you take. The work that defines the product runs through your table.
The room sees you lead
Architects and Angels watch you run a table under real pressure. That is how the next venture, and the next backer, find you.
Your avatar holds the seat
Scanned at onboarding, your likeness leads the table in the configurator. You are present in the room whether or not you travel.

Earnings

Capital, deployed live

You back the build, and take first position.

An Angel pays no membership. You allocate capital live during events, take equity in the ventures you fund, and take first position in every venture you back, ahead of any outside round. The platform takes 15%, the same as it takes from every hour contributed. There is nothing after that.

What an Angel holds across the ventures they back

Per deployment · illustrative

85%of every euro you allocate becomes your position. The platform’s 15% is the only charge, and it is the same 15% every builder pays.

No membership

You pay nothing to hold a seat. Your only cost is the capital you choose to deploy.

Allocate live

Back ventures in the room as they build, not from a pitch deck weeks later.

First position

Your position is set before any outside round prices the company.

Watch the room build Allocate capital live Take equity first position, before outside money

Cost

Equity, not entry

You pay the same 15% as everyone in the room.

The platform takes 15% of the capital you allocate, the same rate it takes from every hour contributed. After that, nothing: no membership, no management fee, no carry, no deployment fee.

Membership

no fee · allocate when you choose

No membership and no obligation to deploy. You hold a seat in the room and move only when a venture earns it.

Platform fee

15%

on capital you allocate

The only charge. No management fee, no carry, no deployment fee. Eighty-five percent becomes your position.

The platform takes 15% of everything that enters a pool, capital included. No membership, no management fee, no carry. Your position comes first in every venture you back, ahead of any outside round.

Value

More than a seat

What a seat in the room gives you that a pitch deck cannot.

The economics are above. These are what you hold backing the studio: first position, real conviction, and a portfolio that spreads across every room.

First position in every venture you back
You are in before any priced round. The equity you take is set by the room you watched build, not by a later valuation.
Back Venture incorporates You are already in
You see the team before you commit
Capital follows conviction. You watch Experts and Imagineers ship under pressure, then back the ones who delivered.
A portfolio, not a single bet
Allocate across many ventures in many rooms. Your downside is spread and your upside compounds across the studio.
Allocate in the room, live
No data room, no weeks of diligence. You move when the work is in front of you and the room is still warm.

A skill you only read about never sticks. A Skill Lab fixes that. Someone who has shipped with it teaches it live, then the room runs it back until the moves hold without help. You leave with the skill and the proof you can use it.

A skill you can run on Monday
Practised under correction, not watched. You follow along on your own work, ask in real time, and repeat the moves while the person who mastered them is still in the room.
A node an Architect can see
The session is banked to your Learning Tree. Your Learning Tree is how the studio knows what to hand you, and skills are how your rate moves.
A shorter path to the table
Experts who bank skills get invited to lead them. Leading is how Imagineers happen.
Two hours, not a course
No cohort, no homework, no six-week commitment. The format exists because senior people do not have Thursdays.

Rate bonuses

How your rate moves

Your rate is not fixed for as long as you are here.

Two things move it. New evidence, if you get promoted or raise your rate card. Or your track record here: what you achieve in Skill Labs will earn small rate bonuses on top of your verified rate. How those bonuses are earned and sized is still being refined; we publish it before it counts.

That is what a Skill Lab is also for. The session costs you a few hours and a member price, and the achievement it banks is what those bonuses will build on.

The Crafts

Peers, not clients

A Craft is a discipline and the people in it.

You belong to one or more, and each meets at its own Craft Lab. Your Craft is where you have peers rather than clients. It is the group that reviews your method, hands you the work that fits you, and notices when you get good at something. Two Crafts run monthly Labs at launch; a Craft opens its Lab when the discipline has the members to fill the room.

Redefine DevelopmentRedefine 3DRedefine WritingRedefine ResearchRedefine Design

Output

What comes out of a Craft Lab

Four things, every time.

Paid work is claimed
Briefs from across the portfolio find the people best equipped to take them, at terms published on the brief. This is where most Experts get their next piece of work, in a room, from peers, rather than from an algorithm. Open to everyone in the Craft, with no precondition.
Your method comes back better than you brought it
You do not hand over your method at a Craft Lab. You put it in front of people who do the same work, and it comes back better. Explaining how you solve something to people who solve the same things forces clarity and surfaces the assumptions you stopped noticing years ago. What gets written down is the improved version, not the one you walked in with. Bring what you want to bring; nothing here is graded or required.
The toolkit improves
Procedures, templates, checklists and tools that remove the same failure from every future build. Nobody arrives holding the improvement. The room produces it. Claimed work banks to Projects; methods and improvements bank to Service Design, where the whole studio reuses them.
Your Craft sees your work
The people who review your method are the people who recommend you for the next venture. Reputation here is built in front of peers who can actually judge it.

The room

Who is in the room

Everyone who works in that discipline.

Whatever their role. An Expert who writes code and an Imagineer who leads a table are in the same Craft, working the same three boards. Guests are welcome at every Craft Lab. The task board is members only, because it carries live briefs from every venture in the portfolio. A guest works the process boards; only a member sees the task board, claims from it and earns Invested Value.

Cost

What it costs, and what you get back

Ticketed per seat. The work you claim there is paid.

A Craft Lab seat is priced per event, between €35 and €95, and open to guests. The seat covers the room; the work is what pays. Briefs claimed on board 1 carry published terms and settle at standard fees, and boards 2 and 3 stay voluntary and uncompensated, by design.

Every seat

Members and guests

€35–95

One seat price per event, the same for members and guests. The Architect who hosts sets it. The paid work on board 1 is the reason to be in the room.

Board 1 work

Paid

at terms published per brief

Not a fee, a payout. Every brief carries its Invested Value and whether it settles as cash, equity or a split, before you claim it.

Guests

boards2 + 3

same seat price · process boards

Guests are welcome and work the process boards. They do not see the task board, cannot claim its briefs and earn no Invested Value.

The work is paid. The boards are not. Board 1 is paid work at published terms. Boards 2 and 3 pay nothing, and that is deliberate.

Terms

Paid work, unpaid boards

The work is paid. The boards are not.

Board 1 is paid work at published terms. The Architect of the venture that raised a brief sets the Invested Value attached and whether it settles as cash, equity, or a split. Not the Craft Lab host, who may not be an Architect at all and earns no override on another venture's work. The same fees apply as anywhere else: an Expert keeps 75%, an Imagineer 85%, and the 10% override goes to the Architect of the briefing venture. Claimed work is recorded and settled in that venture's Event Report, the same as work at a Nexus.

Boards 2 and 3 pay nothing, and that is deliberate. Attending a Craft Lab earns nothing, and documenting a method earns nothing. You are not donating there. You leave with a sharper version of your own method than you arrived with, the accumulated methods of everyone else in your Craft, your name on what you wrote for as long as it is used, and a record of achievement that the coming rate bonuses will build on.

The process board is voluntary and ungraded. Some members' commercial edge is their process. They keep it, and nothing here asks them not to.

One evening, no agenda

Cost

What it costs

Members only, per seat.

A Culture Lab is not open to non-members at any price. The seat is priced per evening, by the venue and the table, and every member pays for it: Imagineers and Angels too, sometimes at a separate price. Nobody earns at a Culture Lab, and nobody is sold to at one. That is the entire point of the format.

Non-member

Evenings are capped and they fill; yours does not need claiming. You pay for your seat like everyone else does, because that is the point of the format.

Output

What you get

A room that performs on day one.

A room that performs on day one
Trust is the reason a Nexus table ships in seven hours instead of arguing for five. Culture Labs are where that trust gets built, and they are the cheapest infrastructure in the studio.
Introductions that are not pitches
No stage means nobody is presenting. What you learn about people over four hours off the clock is what you cannot learn from a profile.
The room Angels sit in
Backers and sponsors arrive here before they arrive anywhere else. Not because it is a pitch night, but because it is the only night that is not.
A network with a memory
These are the people who invite you to the next venture. Every Architect in the studio recruits from a Culture Lab first.

You are standing at the table. Marker in hand. The whiteboard behind you is filling with architecture. Three remote Experts are waiting for their brief. You break the Architect's vision into tasks, assign the hardest problems to the people best equipped to solve them, and watch the pieces snap together across screens and cities. By 17:00, something tangible exists that was just an idea at breakfast.

Your command center

Three ventures. One dashboard.

Tasks completed, team filling up, next event taking shape. The platform keeps momentum alive so when you walk back into the room, you are accelerating, not restarting.

Between Events

Your ventures don't sleep between events

Six tools keep your ventures moving while the room is empty. Scroll, or pick a topic.

Your venture dashboard

Three ventures, one screen: tasks, team, and the next event taking shape.

Launch and brand your venture

A guided flow from concept to published venture page, on your terms.

Assemble your team

Skill match percentages put the right people in the right seats.

Track what's working

Real-time analytics across the ventures you lead. Data replaces gut feelings.

Counter-offer on terms

The Architect sets the reward mix for the run. As an Imagineer, you counter-offer before you commit.

Keep your team aligned

Tasks flow through a workflow board; nothing slips between events.

Onboarding

Scanned into the room

Your digital twin sits at the table

At onboarding, we capture a 3D scan of you. This scan becomes your avatar in the hex configurator. When an Architect assembles a team, they see you seated at the table before you physically arrive.

During Events

Lead the table. Shape the outcome.

Five things happen around your leadership during every event. Scroll, or pick a topic.

Table leadership

The Architect brings vision. You orchestrate the people and the process.

Break the vision into tasks

Translate direction into focused briefs and assign the hardest problems.

Manage execution in real time

Make the calls on scope, priority, and direction as deliverables land.

Bridge physical and remote

Whiteboard in front of you, remote Experts on screen, both in sync.

Ship by sundown

Concept to working prototype in one day, under your leadership.

Table leadership

You built the team that built the product

The Architect provides the vision. You orchestrate the people and the process. By the end of the day, something tangible exists that was just an idea at breakfast. And your name is on the equity register.

Your events

Four formats, one engine

Four events. You lead the table.

Skill Labs are included with your membership; a Craft Lab seat is priced per event. At Nexus you sit at the physical table and direct execution, from full-day ventures to focused skill-building.

Nexus

Half to full-day co-creation. You lead a table of Experts and ship by close of day. The Architect sets the reward mix for the run, from all-equity to fully funded cash, and you can counter-offer before you commit.

Craft Lab

3-hour hands-on sessions. Prototypes, code, design assets ship by end of day. Lead the making.

Skill Lab

2-hour deep-dive sessions. Sharpen skills you apply immediately in your next venture sprint.

Culture Lab

Evening dinners and conversations. The partnerships that shape your next venture start here.

What it feels like

From the inside

One event, vision to shipped.

The seat above is the role. This is what it turns into once you take the table: a configured room, a directed team, and a product that exists by evening.

Imagineer membership

On-site, you lead

Hand me the vision.
I'll hand you the product.

Monday: you configure the tables and select your Experts. Tuesday: the event brief goes out. Thursday: you walk into the room, marker in hand, and twelve people execute against your plan. By Friday, equity updates across three ventures you are leading.

What you gain

More than a seat

What the Imagineer seat gives you.

Everything the Expert seat has, plus the leadership layer: the table, the mix, and the margin.

You pay no Architect fee

Experts pay 10% of their share to the Architect. You don't. Your net equity retention is 85%, compared to 75% as Expert. More hours, more ownership.

You lead the physical table

You are in the room. You see the whiteboard. You feel the energy of building together. Remote Experts execute against the plan you set.

You set your mix per venture

The Architect sets the reward mix for the run: cash, equity, or any split. As an Imagineer, you counter-offer before you commit. Experts take the terms as briefed.

You get your 3D avatar

Your scan becomes a seated mannequin avatar in the hex configurator. Architects see your digital twin at the table when they assemble teams. The bridge between platform and event.

You lead across ventures

Lead tables in the ventures Architects launch, build teams, and track analytics across everything you lead. Side-by-side comparison shows where your energy is producing results.

You track what you lead

Full suite: venture pages, team management, deliverable tracking, attendance analytics, and event ROI. Everything you need to lead the work, not just contribute to it.

"I configured three tables on Monday. By Thursday, twelve people were executing against architecture I designed over the weekend. That is not project management. That is systems thinking."

"I configured the tables on Monday. Selected the Experts on Tuesday. Set the equity rules on Wednesday. On Thursday, twelve professionals executed against a vision I designed."

"The configurator changed how I think about events. I am not scheduling meetings. I am designing the conditions where twelve people produce something none of them could build alone."

Before the event

Set the stage

Design the conditions. Then watch them unfold.

Sunday evening. You open the configurator. Avatars slide into seats. Blueprints load onto hex tiles. Equity rules lock in. By the time anyone walks into the room on Thursday, the entire day has already been designed. You are not preparing an event. You are engineering an outcome.

Your command center

Ten ventures. One configurator.

Drag 3D-scanned avatars into seats around hexagonal tables. Set equity rules, assign deliverables, structure the timeline. The entire event is designed before anyone walks into the room.

Before Events

Design the system that produces the outcome

Six tools design the event before anyone walks into the room. Scroll, or pick a topic.

Your command center

Ten ventures, one configurator: seats, rules, and timelines in one view.

3D event configurator

Drag scanned avatars into seats around hexagonal tables.

Blueprint system

Venture goals break into projects and tasks, connected to hex tiles.

Timeline templates

Double diamond methodology mapped onto draggable schedule blocks.

Rules engine

Equity splits and triggers defined once, enforced at every event.

Invite and approve

Secure your A-team before the event goes public.

During the event

Direct the room

Six professionals executing against your vision

The morning light hits the hex tables. Twelve Experts and three Imagineers find their seats across three tables. You stand at the front, and the room goes quiet. This is the moment where weeks of configuration become hours of execution. Three tables, three Imagineers, a dozen Experts. All moving against your architecture.

During Events

Present the vision. Guide the outcome.

Five things happen across your studio during every event. Scroll, or pick a topic.

Studio leadership

Twelve Experts, three tables, one vision producing in real time.

Present vision and key results

Open the day, define success, and align the room around your direction.

Monitor execution across tables

Every table and deliverable in real time; bottlenecks surface early.

Camera and broadcast

Control what remote participants and the wider community see.

Earn from every Expert

The 10% Architect fee compounds with every event you host.

Studio leadership

You designed the conditions. Now watch them produce.

The Architect does not manage projects. The Architect designs the system that produces the outcome. Six professionals, three tables, one vision. Tracked in real time on the platform you built for exactly this moment.

Your events

Four formats, one engine

Four events. You design the system.

Labs are included with your membership. As Architect, you host Nexus events with configurable economics, then run Labs to sharpen the team. Same engine, every configuration.

Nexus

Half to full-day events. You host, set the vision, and configure the economics, from all-equity to fully funded cash or any mix, and earn 10% of the Experts’ portion of the pool.

Craft Lab

3-hour hands-on sessions. Prototypes and assets that feed directly into your venture pipeline.

Skill Lab

2-hour deep-dives. Sharpen the skills your studio needs. From AI to fundraising to product strategy.

Culture Lab

Evening dinners and connection. The corporate sponsors and Angel investors you need start as conversations here.

What it feels like

From the inside

One system, designed to compound.

The studio above is the toolkit. This is what it turns into once you run it: configured events, locked economics, and a network that earns while you design.

that produces the outcome.

Monday: you open the configurator and drag avatars into seats. Tuesday: the blueprint loads tasks onto hex tiles. Wednesday: equity rules lock in. Thursday: twelve professionals execute against a vision you designed. Friday: the Event Report documents what shipped, who contributed, and how equity distributed.

What you gain

More than a seat

What the Architect seat gives you.

Everything the Imagineer seat has, plus the studio: the configurator, the blueprint, and a share of every Expert’s work.

You design events in 3D

The centerpiece tool. Drag 3D-scanned avatars into hex table seats. Set roles, equity rules, deliverables per seat. Design entire event series visually. This is what separates "I lead a team" from "I operate a venture-building machine."

You earn 10% from every Expert

The Architect fee: 10% of the Invested Value each Expert earns from hours at your events, in cash and equity alike. It does not touch capital, appraised resources, or Imagineer and Architect hours. The more events you host, the more your override compounds across ventures.

You define the blueprint

Define venture goals as projects and tasks. Connect them to hex tiles. Set equity vs pay splits, conversion triggers, milestone automation. Define the economics once. The system enforces them.

You run up to 10 ventures

Run a portfolio of ventures simultaneously. Cross-event analytics spanning your entire studio: cumulative invested value, engagement trends, deliverable completion, equity distribution over time.

You launch your own Nexus

Host Nexus events with configurable economics. Present the vision, define key results, guide teams toward success. Preconfigured templates for all-equity, organisation-funded, and mixed runs.

You unlock funded runs

Configure a Nexus around an outside brief. Their problem, your team, a licence scoped to the work, or full ownership where every contributor is paid in cash. A revenue channel that funds your venture pipeline while building relationships with organisations that need what your studio produces.

Member stories

Coming soon

We are collecting the stories of our first members. They will appear here in their own words, with their consent.

Observe first

Watch, then back

Watch them build. Then write the check.

Close your eyes and remember the last time you invested based on a pitch deck. The polished slides. The hockey-stick projections. Now imagine something different: you have attended three events. You have watched a team argue, adapt, and ship under pressure. You know who leads and who follows. When you write the check, there are no surprises left.

Your deal flow

Ventures that proved themselves in front of you.

Hot deals surface ventures with high fill rates and strong traction. Filter by sector, stage, equity range. New opportunities arrive with every Nexus.

How You Invest

Evidence-based investing. Not pattern matching.

Five steps take you from observer to investor. Scroll, or pick a topic.

Your deal flow

Hot deals surface ventures with high fill rates and strong traction.

Attend as observer

Watch teams build under real pressure. No commitment, just evidence.

Select ventures worth backing

You watched the teams execute; filter by stage, sector, and value.

Allocate capital live

Capital converts to Invested Value in real time during events.

First position in every venture you back

Priority position when a venture incorporates and shares convert.

Your portfolio

Equity you can see

Portfolio management where the data is the build

How is the team performing? What milestones are approaching? Is the venture accelerating or stalling? Every answer lives on your dashboard, updated after every event. You do not need an update call.

Between Events

Watch the ventures grow

Five views keep your portfolio transparent between events. Scroll, or pick a topic.

Portfolio dashboard

Stage badges, velocity charts, and your invested value, updated live.

Metrics that match the stage

Pre-seed shows velocity; post-revenue shows MRR. Never vanity metrics.

Find your next bet

Every venture offering equity, filterable; the pipeline fills itself.

Track what you have built

Invested Value growth and milestones without an update call.

Transparent valuation

Valuations based on documented work, not storytelling.

Portfolio dashboard

The dashboard grows with the venture

Venture tabs with stage badges. Team velocity charts. Event attendance trends. Product milestone timelines. Your equity position and invested value counter. The data you need, updated live.

Your events

Four formats, one engine

See the teams work. Then decide.

Angels attend Nexus events as observers. Watch teams build under real pressure. No obligation to invest. When you are ready, allocate capital into ventures that proved themselves in front of you.

Nexus

Half to full-day events. Observe teams build from concept to prototype, then allocate capital into ventures configured for equity. Your primary deal-flow source.

Culture Lab

Evening dinners, members only, per seat. Your seat is standing: held at every evening, and you pay for it like everyone else. The founders and operators you want to back start as conversations over drinks.

Skill Lab

Two-hour sessions, now open to Angels, with Diligence sessions included. Reading an Event Report, what Invested Value proves, judging a team under pressure, what changes at incorporation, portfolio construction.

Funded runs

An alternative to the agency invoice

Fund the build instead of buying the output.

An agency takes your brief, charges you a fee, and hands back a deliverable. You own a file and nothing else. Fund a run here and the same brief goes to a room of senior builders, ships in days, and leaves you holding a position rather than a receipt.

You bring the brief and the budget. You choose the terms of ownership: a licence scoped to the work, full ownership of sessions where every contributor is paid in cash, or equity in what gets built. The Architect brings the vision and runs the room; the terms of ownership are yours, the execution is not. Fifteen percent to the platform, the same as every contribution. Nothing after that.

Your briefOur roomYour choice of ownership

Diligence

The Angel curriculum

Everyone else does diligence from a data room. You do it from inside the room.

Sessions on what an Event Report actually tells you, what Invested Value does and does not prove, how to read a team under real pressure instead of in a pitch, what changes when a venture incorporates, and how to build a portfolio across a studio rather than a bet on one venture. Taught by the people running the ventures you are looking at, delivered through Skill Labs and included with the Angel track.

Alongside the sessions, your record: every venture you watched, what you concluded, whether you allocated, and what happened next. Over enough ventures that becomes something rarer than a thesis. It becomes a track record of your own judgement. Private unless you choose to show it.

Delivered through Skill LabsIncluded with the Angel trackPrivate by default

What it feels like

From the inside

Three events, then conviction.

The track above is the access. This is what it turns into once you sit in the room: observed teams, live allocations, and a portfolio built on evidence.

Angel investor

You back the build

I watched them build
before I wrote the check.

Event one: you observe. Event two: you see the same team handle a pivot. Event three: you know who leads and who follows. When you tap "Allocate," the equity tracker updates in real time. You did not invest in a slide deck. You invested in what you watched them build.

What you gain

More than a seat

What the Angel seat gives you.

A different path. You don’t build, you fund: evidence first, capital live, and a portfolio you watched being built.

You pay what everyone pays

Fifteen percent to the platform, the same rate that applies to every contribution in the record of ownership, whether it arrived as hours or as euros. Eighty-five percent of every euro you allocate becomes your position. After that, nothing: no membership fee, no subscription, no quarterly fee, no management fee, no carry on the way in. You invest capital, not time, and you pay for it on the same terms as the people investing time.

You see evidence first

Attend Nexus events as observer. Watch the same team across multiple events. See how they handle pivots, deadlines, and pressure before you commit capital.

You get first position in every venture

Priority access before external investors. When a venture is formalised after 2-month break-even, usually as a Dutch BV, your Invested Value converts to tradeable shares.

You choose direct or diversified

Back specific ventures you choose, or invest in the Redefine Holding Fund for portfolio-wide diversified exposure. Redefine allocates based on venture performance.

You watch your portfolio live

Venture tabs with stage badges. Team velocity charts. Event attendance trends. Your equity position and invested value counter. The dashboard grows with the venture.

You can stack any membership

The three tracks are independent: Build earns equity through work, Invest allocates capital, and Operate is cash work inside live ventures under a separate agreement. Be an Imagineer earning equity AND an Angel backing ventures you did not build.

You keep your place in the ventures you back

Pro-rata follow-on rights in every venture you have already funded. When a venture raises again, your position does not get diluted out from under you by people who arrived after the work was done.

A standing seat at every Culture Lab

The evenings are capped and they fill. Yours is held. No stage, no head of the table, and no seating plan that tells the room who funds it. You pay for your seat like everyone else does, because that is the point of the format.

How it works

The mechanism

The investor path, itemized.

Every step of the Angel track against what it costs you: 15% on capital you allocate, the same as every contribution, and nothing else. The access, the evidence, and the portfolio. Read it top to bottom and decide for yourself.

An Angel can also set up a business account for their organisation and give licences to their people.

Inside a Nexus

All roles engage at
The Nexus

A Nexus brings every role into one room. The Architect hosts and sets the vision, Imagineers run the tables, Experts plug in to build, and Angels back what they see performing. Four roles, one shared record of ownership, one venture taking shape in real time.

The engine

Four events. One engine of innovation.

Each format amplifies the others. Culture Labs build the trust that makes Nexus teams perform. Skill Labs sharpen the techniques that make Craft Labs productive. Every Nexus ships a venture and fuels the next conversation. Run them in rotation and they stop being separate events. They compound into one engine.

The innovation engine

Nexus events at the core. Three labs amplify every dimension.

Hover a lab hexagon to explore. Skill Labs sharpen capabilities. Craft Labs refine processes. Culture Labs build the trust that holds it all together.

The toolkit

One platform.
Every tool the work needs.

From designing the room to tracking who owns what, every event runs on the same connected set of tools. Pick one to see what it does.

From the community

Member voices

Built by the people in the room

Experts, Imagineers, Architects and Angels on what changed when the work became co-creative.

Builders and Operators

Two kinds of work

Working on the business, and working in it.

A venture-building event only ever does the first kind of work: creating the thing, shaping the brand, designing the systems the venture will run on. Project work that leaves an asset behind.

Running the business is different work. Delivering the service, answering the customers, keeping the books. It is recurring, it consumes capacity rather than producing an asset, and it is what most founders get swallowed by.

So we keep them apart. Builders work on the business and earn a share of it. Operators work in it and are paid commercially for that. Separate agreement, separate payments, no equity, no platform fee. Nothing about the two tracks touches.

That separation is the point. A venture that reaches customers needs someone to run it, and the reason we say so out loud is that it does not have to be you. You built it. That was the job you came for.

On the business = equityIn the business = cashSeparate agreements, by design

Membership

Everything you get as a member

Join free, bring your expertise to live ventures, and walk away with cash and a real stake in what you help build. No subscription to start. No card. No catch.

You own a piece of what you build

Every hour you contribute earns Invested Value equity, set by your verified rate and your logged hours and recorded in each Event Report. When a venture reaches two-month break-even and takes its legal form, usually a Dutch BV, that equity converts to real, tradeable shares. It stays yours even if you cancel.
