DesignBro is an Irish-Dutch online graphic design marketplace that connects clients and pre-vetted designers from all over the world.[1] The company was founded in 2016, and has offices in Cork, Ireland and Amsterdam, The Netherlands.[2]

History

DesignBro was founded by Christiaan Huynen and Pieter-Jan Hoogendijk, and was incorporated in June 2016.[3] The company launched its first version of the platform November 2017. DesignBro is a next generation online marketplace focused on curation, and the focus tends to be on quality rather than quantity.[4]

With 1000+ customers, the company has 98% customer satisfaction rate which itself speaks about the design quality delivered to the customers.[5]

Typically online platforms tend to get started by people specifically focused on technology, they have an easier time reimagining an industry, as they don’t need to overthink the model from the inside out. DesignBro’s founder, Christiaan Huynen, on the other hand, is a third generation Design Agency owner, and believes the industry is ripe for disruption.[6]

Financials

In July, 2020 the company successfully raised nearly €400,000.[7][8] The amount, which was considerably higher than aimed, via private investors and partly via Dutch angel investor platform Leapfunder.[9][10]
