ImpactBuilders Builders

Transforming and reviving companies

ImpactBuilders Builders is a venture building services firm that transforms and revives existing companies into thriving businesses. We work for the owners with a temporary mandate of a few months to a few years. By the time we are out, we ensure a long-term profitability, and a drive to creating a positive impact.

An ImpactBuilders initiative

ImpactBuilders Builders is one of the initiatives that realise our dream to ensure businesses are thriving, well-connected over Europe, and a cause of joy for clients, collaborators, and other individuals impacted by their activities. 

With a clear mandate

We build completely new ventures, and we renovate existing portfolio companies, with a clear mandate from the owners.

Private Equity firms and VCs

When a portfolio company got stuck, it’s high time to ask us to revive the company before it is too late …

University Tech Transfer departments

Because you cannot demand top entrepreneurship qualities from your top researchers …

Corporate Venturing departments

If you would like your new companies to grow and flourish far away from the corporate politics.

Business Angel syndicates

When you got to the point that the original team might not be the best solution for the long-term growth.

Core services

Solutions

We deliver in essence three types of services solutions

Business Transformation

From the first northstar exercise, all the way to the definition of a future-oriented strategy, and the coaching of the transformation implementation.

Typically for mid-sized international companies or business units.

Company turn-around

We move in for you. After a super-quick challenge determination, we take the lead over the team and get your portfolio company back on its feet. Not for sissies.

Typcically for small to medium-sized companies that are in (deep) trouble.

New Venture Building

We take the first idea, confront it with the market, build a team around it, and start selling and scaling. We get the mandate to run this company – together with the owners of the ideas.

Typically for tech transfer and corporate startups.

Services

The solutions are a combination of individual services from a first advisory, all the way to walk the talk and get results – while creating impact.

Advisory and workshops

Analytics, market searches, sounding boards, workshops, … across the entire end-to-end value chain.

Temporary leadership

Both in crisises and ‘in the good days’, a temporary leader needs to ‘turn the ship’ before hiring the new leaders.

Reputation building

Purpose is great to get known beyond the current supply chain. New talent, journalists, authorities, banks, … love it.

International development

Opening new markets. Finding new business partners. Attracting new leaders and investors. Globally.

Experienced team

Advisors and temporary leaders

We have selected a few top-talents that are 100% in line with our group core values: passion, trust, results.

International network

ImpactBuilders has an ultra-light internal coordination, focused around the two founders, Steven Storms and Jan Lagast.

Visionary Governance

The BigBoard orchestrates and synchronises all our legal entities, whereas the ImpactBoard guards the realisation of our long-term dream.
