 Paris, le 21 septembre 2023 – SAP, leader mondial des logiciels professionnels d’entreprise, lance ce jour son nouveau programme d’accélération de startups autour de SAP.iO, son accélérateur interne. Un programme qui vise à soutenir l’engagement des consommateurs grâce à une meilleure expérience et une satisfaction client. 15 startups seront ainsi accompagnées.

 

De nouvelles tendances dans l’expérience client qui incitent à l’innovation.

Dans un environnement numérique en constante évolution, SAP poursuit sa quête vers plus d’innovation pour répondre aux besoins de ses clients. Aujourd’hui, les exigences des clients finaux ne cessent de croître, notamment en raison d’une volonté accrue de l’accès instantané à l’information. Cette tendance incite les entreprises à réexaminer régulièrement leur approche, en intégrant à leurs solutions, des avancées technologiques telle que l’intelligence artificielle.

 

Un programme complet d’incubation de startups  innovantes dans l’expérience client. 

C’est la raison pour laquelle SAP lance son programme SAP.iO, axé sur l’amélioration de l’expérience du consommateur en fournissant les solutions les mieux adaptées à cette tendance. Ce programme initié par SAP, piloté par l’incubateur SAP.iO, est essentiellement orienté B2C (Business-to-Consumer), l’objectif étant de fournir tous les outils et solutions nécessaires aux clients finaux pour améliorer significativement leur expérience, avec un accent particulier sur l’amélioration de leur expérience d’achat. Ce programme couvre l’intégralité de la chaîne d’approvisionnement, depuis la sélection du bon produit jusqu’à sa livraison, dans les délais impartis. Cette nouvelle initiative démontre l’engagement continu de SAP à demeurer à la pointe de l’innovation pour ses partenaires, et à créer une valeur ajoutée dans le domaine de la gestion de la relation client.

 

Le programme de SAP.iO accompagne 15 startups à partir du 21 septembre.

Le programme sera officiellement lancé le 21 septembre à la Tour SAP (Inscription ci-contre) en compagnie des 15 startups sélectionnées pour y participer. Ces startups ont été choisies en fonction de plusieurs critères, notamment leur taille et leur expérience relative, la viabilité technique de leurs solutions, leur unicité par rapport aux technologies existantes chez SAP, et leur valeur commerciale. Ces startups sont toutes spécialisées dans l’expérience d’achat et seront intégrées au programme SAP (voir listing ci-dessous).

 

 

« SAP.iO est fier d’accompagner 15 startups talentueuses qui incarnent notre vision d’un avenir où l’engagement des consommateurs est au cœur de chaque entreprise.

SAP France s’engage avec la start-up Evolukid, les territoires de Lens-Liévin et Aix-Marseille pour le lancement du programme KESK’IA, programme d’excellence dédié aux étudiants en filières informatiques et digitales.

Paris, le 3 avril 2023 – SAP, leader mondial des logiciels innovants de gestion d’entreprises, renforce sa présence dans les territoires au service de l’égalité des chances avec le lancement du programme KESK’IA, en partenariat avec Evolukid, plateforme éducative pour développer les compétences du futur. Sur tout le territoire hexagonal, SAP France s’associe aux côtés de ses partenaires tels que L’Oréal, Société Générale, TATA Consultancy Services et UPS.

 

Favoriser l’égalité des chances dans le numérique avec KESK’IA.

Entre février et juin 2023, près de 100 étudiants seront accompagnés pour réaliser des prototypes d’Intelligence Artificielle au service de leur territoire. Sélectionnés parmi plus de 450 candidatures, ils seront chargés de développer des projets concrets à impacts positifs dans sept territoires via le programme KESK’IA. Ce programme d’excellence destiné aux étudiants en filière Informatique ou digitale vise à perfectionner leurs compétences et à préparer les talents de demain dans le domaine de l’Intelligence Artificielle.

Pendant toute la durée du programme, des mentors de SAP France accompagneront ces futurs talents pour la mise en œuvre d’une vingtaine de prototypes autour de quatre thématiques :

  • Prévention des risques et sécurité : détection du harcèlement
  • Environnement et écologie: Reconnaissance des déchets dans des zones difficilement accessibles par drones, réduction du gaspillage alimentaires dans les cantines scolaires
  • E-Réputation: Mesure des commentaires négatifs sur la collectivité
  • Aménagement du territoire : Reconnaissance d’infrastructures endommagées par drones ou caméra de vidéo-surveillance.

« SAP France est très fier de participer au programme KESK’IA, en partenariat avec Evolukid. Depuis toujours, SAP est déterminé à aller chercher les talents sur tout le territoire : en milieu urbain, rural ou en QPV. Ce programme renforce nos engagements en faveur de l’accessibilité de notre filière. C’est également une formidable occasion de montrer aux collectivités les atouts de l’IA et de les équiper face aux défis technologiques actuels. » déclare Olivier Nollent, Président – Directeur Général de SAP France.

« Pouvoir faire émerger de l’innovation et de la valeur ajoutée des quartiers populaires est ce que l’on recherche. Il faut redonner de la confiance à ces jeunes qui n’ont pas les relations pour rentrer facilement sur le marché : c’est ce que permet KESK’IA. Pouvoir s’appuyer sur de grandes entreprises de la tech telles que SAP est important et stimulant. C’est une vraie chance pour les étudiants du programme, mais aussi pour ces entreprises qui peuvent s’investir dans un projet à impact et faire grandir de nouveaux talents. » a ajouté Morad Attik, CEO d’Evolukid et Directeur du programme KESK’IA.

 

SAP France, un leader mondial engagé pour l’insertion professionnelle dans les territoires.

En tant que partenaire du programme KESK’IA, SAP France apporte sa contribution aux côtés de la Communauté d’Agglomération de Lens-Liévin (CALL) et la Métropole d’Aix-Marseille et accompagne 20 étudiants répartis dans ces deux territoires. En renforçant sa présence dans les territoires en dehors de ses sites d’implantation français, SAP en France souhaite être le moteur de l’intégration, de l’égalité des chances et de l’insertion professionnelle dans le domaine de l’IA.

Dans le Nord-Pas-de-Calais et dans les Bouches-du-Rhône, SAP vise à résoudre le déficit de compétences, de vocations des jeunes dans le numérique et s’emploie à faire grandir les talents de ces deux territoires en apportant des connaissances et un nouveau réseau professionnel.

« Rêver, s’obstiner et réussir… il y a de la magie à voir grand ! Et cette citation d’Erick Orsenna et Marie Eloy qui caractérise la team et les jeunes de Lens. Car avoir ce type de programme chez nous et les grands groupes comme SAP et l’Oréal à nos côtés c’est inespéré ! Alors oui, ils rêvent mais ils sont obstinés à réussir ce projet. » ajoute Saliha SADOUKI, Responsable Pôle Communication & Numérique, Maison de l’Emploi du bassin Lens, Liévin, Hénin, Carvin.

Après quatre mois de développement, les étudiants présenteront devant un jury d’experts et d’élus leurs prototypes. Les sept prototypes finalistes qui représenteront les sept territoires du programme KESK’IA seront présentés par les étudiants en juin. Les trois meilleurs projets seront récompensés lors d’une cérémonie nationale à Paris rassemblant sponsors, entreprises partenaires, collectivités et experts de l’intelligence artificielle.

Evolukid, startup EdTech, accompagne depuis 2016 les collectivités territoriales et les entreprises dans la mise en œuvre de projets innovants liés aux nouvelles technologies. Notre expertise – incluant l’ingénierie pédagogique, le matériel, les intervenants formés, les déplacements et la logistique globale – nous permet d’intervenir partout en France et à l’étranger. Depuis 2019, nous avons lancé la plateforme éducative en ligne Evolukid : notre solution en ligne proposant des parcours éducatifs et des classes virtuelles pour répondre aux besoins des familles. Evolukid devient une véritable école numérique pour tous types de projets.

En partenariat avec la Banque des Territoires, Evolukid lance en février 2023 le programme KESK’IA pour former les étudiants et les talents des quartiers populaires à l’intelligence artificielle. Des villes associées telles que Lens, Meaux, Nantes, Marseille, et des acteurs majeurs de l’économie tels que Sales Force, Google, et d’autres leaders mondiaux qui rejoignent actuellement l’initiative seront parties prenantes du programme KESK’IA.

Ces jeunes étudiants, sélectionnés à l’issue du processus pédagogique, répondront à des problématiques locales d’écologie, de gestion des déchets et de citoyenneté par l’intelligence artificielle en livrant des prototypes fonctionnels (généralisables à d’autres territoires). Enfin, à l’issue de cette initiative, lors de la grande soirée de clôture avec l’ensemble des sponsors et partenaires, les candidats présenteront leurs prototypes et se verront décerner le prix de la meilleure innovation par un grand jury. Cela permettra aux entreprises non seulement de recruter les meilleurs, mais aussi de rappeler que les quartiers prioritaires sont le creuset de l’ambition de la France de se hisser parmi les premières nations en matière d’innovation et de nouvelles technologies.

Les ambitions de Quipment, premier fournisseur d’équipements médicaux pour les laboratoires du monde entier, s’incarnent sur plusieurs aspects dont celui de faire évoluer ses processus métiers ainsi que ses outils.

Paris, le 15 décembre 2022. SAP, leader du marché des logiciels d’application d’entreprise, accompagne Quipment, acteur mondial de la fourniture de matériel médical pour les essais cliniques, dans le choix de leur nouvel ERP.

Avec des processus et des normes internationales de plus en plus complexes et exigeantes, mais aussi face à des volumes industriels, Quipment pourra désormais s’appuyer sur RISE S/4HANA Public Cloud pour automatiser tous ses processus métiers, de la Finance à la comptabilité, en passant par la gestion des stocks, la maintenance et la configuration de ces matériels, et ce dans plusieurs pays.

Elle permettra également d’assurer un accompagnement adapté à la croissance de Quipment. La startup pourra enfin bénéficier de la simplicité d’usage grâce aux processus standardisés du dispositif SAP.

Ce partenariat a été rendu possible par la capacité des équipes Grow by SAP – un programme d’accélération pour les entreprises à forte croissance – à répondre à l’ensemble des besoins de Quipment, de leur proposer un accompagnement sur-mesure pour assurer aux équipes une adoption optimale et leur permettre de répondre à la demande croissante du marché. La proposition de valeur de Grow by SAP permet d’accélérer l’activité de Quipment de la manière la plus durable et efficace qui soit grâce à une solution SaaS et à un ensemble de mesures couvrant notamment le Marketing, la Finance, le Growth hacking, etc.

Aussi, l’association de SAP et WYNSYS, l’un des partenaires les plus performants de SAP, permet à la startup de restructurer ses processus et de profiter pleinement des avantages de la solution dans le Cloud.

Pierre Malingrey, Président et cofondateur de Quipment précise :  « La robustesse de la solution Rise S/4HANA nous a convaincu pour venir répondre à nos objectifs d’automatisation. Cela va permettre à Quipment de réaliser les gains d’efficacité significatifs et nous permettre de maintenir notre avance sur ce marché en phase d’industrialisation. Au-delà de cette efficience, la solution RISE S/4HANA va doter Quipment de gains capacitaires très importants pour absorber les volumes croissants de notre marché.

Lahcen Binoumar, Head of Middle Market chez SAP France déclare : « Collaborer avec une startup comme Quipment est une opportunité exceptionnelle pour SAP de démontrer les capacités et la flexibilité de ses solutions. Le secteur de l’approvisionnement des produits médicaux et de laboratoire répond à une exigence intrinsèque à Quipment que SAP et WYNSYS ont à cœur de soutenir. Notre solution permettra ainsi à Quipment de conforter sa position de leader sur son marché et de continuer à se développer à l’international, tout en modernisant ses processus. »

Artificial intelligence is the latest buzzword in the tech world. It’s everywhere and has been for a while, but AI-powered writing software is a relatively new concept.

AI Writing Software uses artificial intelligence to write articles, blog posts, and other content in your voice. The goal is to provide a tool that will save you time and energy so you can focus on different aspects of your business or life.

To help you get started, we’ve compiled a list of 20 AI writing software you can use to create content for your website, blog, or social media accounts.

1. Copy.ai 

Copy.ai uses Natural Language Processing (NLP) to produce high-quality content for your business, ebooks, blog posts, articles, product descriptions, social media content, and more. It can also be used to rewrite existing content so that you can use it on your website, blog, or social media pages.

Since it uses artificial intelligence to mimic human writing patterns and styles, the copy will be more natural and easier to read than the typical machine-generated text we’re used to seeing.

Copy.ai differs from traditional content creation tools because it doesn’t just offer suggestions on improving your current content; it generates new text based on what it thinks would be most relevant for the topic or audience.

Key Features: 

  • Pre-built Templates – Copy.ai has a ton of pre-built templates for different kinds of content. For example, you can see below that it has options for blogs, social media content, video, case studies, and more:

  • Different tones and variations – Get access to tones like friendly, persuasive, professional, luxury, witty, bold, and more to align the content with your writing style. It also creates multiple variations based on your input – you can pick the one you like or make more.

    To illustrate this, here’s a screenshot of the results we got while trying to write the introduction for this article using Copy AI. 

  • Writing and Brainstorming tools – You also get tons of writing tools, brainstorming tools, and personal tools. Writing tools include essay intro, cliffhanger generator, adjective accelerator, passive to active voice, verb booster, and the like. Brainstorming tools have a name generator, startup ideas, viral ideas, and more – while Personal tools include birthday cards, clubhouse bios, cover letters, love letters, and shower thoughts.

    You can save your content and then return to it later if you wish. Plus, the software’s user interface is easy to navigate, and the program is simple. 

Luciano Viterale, Co-founder of Ticker Nerd, also shares his experience with Copy.ai

“I’ve been experimenting with AI copywriting tools since GPT-3 was released. I have explored many of the popular tools. However, my favorite tool by far is Copy AI. They have an outstanding blogging outline feature; the UX is clean and easy to navigate, and the pricing is reasonable.

Copy AI also generated the name of my startup, “Ticker Nerd,” which is an investing newsletter that was recently acquired.”

That said, Viterale suggests that the blog outlines can be repetitive. He says, “one thing I don’t particularly like is that blog outlines include the same point repeatedly but articulated slightly differently, essentially adding no value.” 

Pros: 

  • Copy.ai produces content at least 80% as good as a human writer (and often better). The system continually learns, which means the more you use it, the better it gets. 
  • It has an extensive library of templates available for different requirements. 
  • It supports over 25 languages, including English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian, Dutch, Russian, and more. 

Cons: 

  • Not suitable for long-form content. 
  • The content can get a bit repetitive after a while.  
  • The free plan lets you create only 2000 words per month. 

Pricing: 

It starts from $39 per month (if you pay yearly) for up to 40k words per month, unlimited copywriting tools, priority email support, Blog Wizard tool, support for 25+ languages, and five user seats. 

2. Jasper 

Jasper.ai is an AI copywriting tool that uses a combination of artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language processing (NLP) to create content based on user input. 

It helps you generate original content for your blogs, social media, websites, and more. Jasper also knows 10% of what’s on the internet and continues to learn more daily.

Just like Copy.ai, Jasper’s user interface is easy to use and navigate around. With its specific template for blog posts, articles, ebooks, and more, it’s also one of the few AI writing software suitable for long-form content. 

All you have to do is enter the title, your intended audience, tone of voice, and language options, along with the main point of your copy, and voila – Jasper can churn out a high-quality piece of content for you within seconds.

Key Features: 

  • 50+ AI templates – Jasper.ai offers a variety of AI templates, including Blog Posts, Summary, Conclusion, Q&A, Ads, Videos, Social Media, Rewriter, Marketing Frameworks, Articles, and more. Each template has several use cases – for example, a blog has Blog Titles, Content Briefs, and Outlines.

  • Customer support options via chat or email are limited.

Pricing: 

It starts with $40/mo for 35K words, 50+ AI templates, 20+ languages, up to 5 seats, and chat support.

3. Rytr 

Rytr is a content generation tool that uses AI to generate high-quality, human-sounding content for emails, blogs, YouTube videos, and landing pages. 

It also supports multiple languages and tones and uses copywriting frameworks, including AIDA & PAS. And to ensure that your content is free of plagiarism, it comes with a built-in plagiarism checker.

Like Copy.ai. Rytr is also more suitable for short-form content and copywriting than long-form content. 

Key Features:

Frequently asked questions about AI writing software.

1. What is AI Writing Software?

AI writing software is an artificial intelligence program used to write text. It can generate content for websites, blogs, and other fields. The content created by AI writers is often indistinguishable from human-created content. Still, sometimes it has a slightly robotic feel or may include words or phrases that seem out of place in the context of the writing.

2. How does AI Writing Software work?

The software uses an algorithm to mimic the creative process of human writers. It first creates a base text that modifies by adding words and phrases specific to your content. This ensures that you get high-quality original content every time you use it.

3. Who can use AI Writing Software?

Anyone who needs to create texts for their business or website can benefit from using this software. It’s also an excellent option for freelance writers and content marketers facing writer’s block. As it’s easy and fast, even beginners can start using it immediately and see great results within minutes!

4. Can I use AI writers for everything I write?

No — AI writers are best suited for shorter pieces like headlines or product descriptions because they don’t have much time to learn about your company’s brand voice or personality. 

While there are tools to churn out long-form content, you still need the human touch for longer and more research-intensive pieces like blog posts or sales copy. AI algorithms still can’t pick up on nuances like a human can.

5. What are some of the benefits of using AI Writing Software?

There are many benefits to using AI writing software. The most obvious benefit is that you no longer need to spend time creating content yourself. The software will do it for you! 

Another benefit is that AI writing software allows you to create content in any niche or topic you desire. You can even target multiple niches at once! This makes it possible to scale your business quickly and easily by leveraging the power of automation while still keeping your hands on the work itself.

6. How much does it cost?

The pricing depends on the type of service you want to use. Some companies offer free trials or even freemium versions with limited credits so that you can test their services before making a purchase decision. Some companies offer lifetime discounts for repeat customers, so keep an eye out for those offers when making your choice!

7. What’s the difference between AI-powered and human-written content?

While humans are still required for high-quality content creation, AI makes scaling up your content marketing efforts easier. By automating much of the writing process – from keyword research to formatting – AI can help you create more content at a lower cost per article. In addition, this frees your team members to focus on other tasks that require their expertise (like outreach) or simply spend more time enjoying their lives!

8. What is the best AI Writer?

The best AI writer depends on what you want it to do and how much you want to spend. If you’re going to write books or articles, many different programs can help you with this task. Our top pick for long-form would be Jasper

On the other hand, if you only need help with short-form content such as blog posts or press releases, there may not be any need for an AI writer because these documents don’t require as much work or effort from the user. In that case, you might want to use tools like Copy.ai, Rytr, and more. 

9. Can I use AI Writing Software to replace my human writers?

No, AI writing software isn’t meant to replace human writers. It’s designed to work alongside them, helping them create more engaging and relevant content for their audiences. You’ll still need human writers who can add style and personality to your content.

Over to You! 

Do you find writing to be an exhausting activity? If yes, you would want to try one of the AI Writing Software tools we suggested above. These are some of the best AI writing tools specially developed to boost creativity, motivation, and productivity.

There’s room for experimentation with AI-generated content as long as you can recognize where specific tools are lacking and how to incorporate that into your work. Ultimately, the future of AI writing assistant software will mean ever-more versatile tools for writers, so don’t be shy about testing the waters.

This is the perfect time to raise this point — just as Spring Native is coming to the forefront. Is it time to move to GraalVM? Spoiler: it depends. Yes, if you’re building serverless, probably no if you’re building pretty much anything else — with a few exceptions for some microservices.

Before I begin, I want to qualify that I’m talking about native image (SubstrateVM) which is what most people mean when they say GraalVM. That specific feature took over a much larger and more ambitious project that includes some amazing capabilities such as polyglot programming. GraalVM native images let us compile our Java projects to native code. It performs analysis and removes unnecessary stuff, it can reduce the size and startup time of a binary significantly. I’ve seen 10-20x improvement to startup time, that’s a lot. Ram usage is also much lower sometimes by a similar scale but usually not as significant.

The internet ecosystem is currently shifting significantly with the dawn of decentralization. More and more decentralized technologies are becoming mainstream and gaining acceptance by the world at large.

As far as innovation and development is concerned, the startup way of doing things has prevailed. While more prominent companies have tried to get into the space, none of their projects has been groundbreaking regarding their usage. Startups have the upper edge, with many creating successful businesses like opensea.io, Alchemy, and IPFS/filecoin (Protocol Labs).

Levallois-Perret, le 2 juin 2021 — Responsage, service spécialisé dans le conseil et l’orientation des salariés aidants et Tilia, start-up dédiée à l’accompagnement des aidants soutenue par BNP Paribas Personal Finance, annoncent que SAP, leader du marché des logiciels d’application d’entreprise, a choisi leurs solutions pour accompagner et soulager ses collaborateurs aidants dans leur quotidien.

L’aidance : un sujet majeur de l’accord inter-générationnel de SAP

C’est dans le cadre de l’accord intergénérationnel signé en fin d’année que SAP a choisi d’accompagner ses salariés aidants avec les services de Responsage et Tilia.

« De plus en plus de salariés doivent prendre soin d’un parent âgé, d’un enfant ou d’un conjoint malade ou en situation de handicap, affirme Sandra Lotode, Directrice des relations sociales. Cela a donc été une évidence de proposer aux aidants, au sein de nos dispositifs de qualité de vie au travail, une solution qui les soulage et préserve l’équilibre vie privée/vie professionnelle. »

Responsage-Tilia : la réponse idéale à la problématique de l’aidance

Expert reconnu de l’accompagnement des salariés aidants depuis 2013, Responsage accompagne les salariés tout au long de leur parcours d’aidant : entretien téléphonique/visio  pour hiérarchiser les problématiques, réponse écrite documentée en 3 jours ouvrés, calendrier de suivi personnalisé pour le montage des dossiers…. L’application Tilia offre un accès digital au service Responsage. De plus, Tilia assure la mise en œuvre et la coordination des différents prestataires nécessaires à la personne aidée.

« Le dispositif d’aide aux salariés aidants s’inscrit dans le volet social de la RSE, souligne Joël Riou, Président-Fondateur de Responsage. Soutenu par un accompagnement expert, le salarié préserve sa santé physique et mentale. Par ailleurs, grâce aux bilans anonymisés fournis par Responsage, SAP dispose d’une vision objectivée de la problématique dans l’entreprise. »

« Tilia se réjouit d’accompagner des entreprises qui inscrivent l’humain au cœur de leurs ambitions et qui font de l’aidance une priorité de leur stratégie de bien-être au travail, » indique Christine Lamidel, Fondatrice et Directrice Générale de Tilia. « Le dispositif Responsage-Tilia simplifie le quotidien des aidants et les rassure sur le bien-être de leur proche. Cela participe in fine au maintien de leur engagement professionnel, une nécessité pour rompre l’isolement auquel les aidants sont souvent confrontés. »

À propos de Responsage

Responsage accompagne les salariés aidants depuis 2013. L’entreprise compte plus de 100 clients (Danone, L’Oréal, Pernod-Ricard, Crédit Agricole, France Télévisions, Pôle emploi…) et couvre plus de 250 000 ayants droit. Responsage s’appuie sur une équipe d’assistants sociaux expérimentés, des bases de données de plus de 70 000 contacts et un outil d’aide à la rédaction expert. Les outils collectent et anonymisent dans des bilans les données sur les salariés accompagnés. L’entreprise peut ainsi orienter ses politiques sociales.

À propos de Tilia

Tilia est un dispositif clé en main qui accompagne les entreprises et directions des ressources humaines désireuses d’épauler leurs collaborateurs confrontés à la situation d’un proche en état de dépendance. Cet accompagnement s’effectue par le biais d’une approche collective comprenant des cycles de conférences de sensibilisation à destination de tous les acteurs de l’entreprise, et d’une approche individuelle dédiée aux aidants. Le service proposé par Tilia a été élaboré dans le but d’apporter du répit aux collaborateurs contraints de conjuguer activité professionnelle et rôle d’aidant, et participer ainsi au maintien des équilibres de temps de vie au quotidien. Tilia assiste toutes les fragilités — maladie, handicap, grand-âge ou suite à un accident de la vie — en vue de faciliter le bien vivre à domicile, d’alléger le quotidien des aidants et de les rassurer quant au bien-être de leur proche fragilisé.

Tilia est une startup engagée (social business), issue d’un programme d’intrapreneuriat du Groupe BNP Paribas, développée par sa Directrice Générale et Fondatrice Christine Lamidel suite à son expérience familiale personnelle, et aujourd’hui accélérée par BNP Paribas Personal Finance.

When you hear the word “leadership,” do you think of a particular person?

If you’d been asked that question anytime before the 1900s, chances are you’d think of an accomplished politician or a battle-tested general. These were the people leading society for most of recorded history. Today, you might have someone else in mind.

Since the industrial era, the US has birthed a pantheon of founders who’ve arguably led our society as much as any statesman or president. We put Rockefeller and Ford right next to Lincoln and Jefferson. Think about it; these guys haven’t just changed the US; they’ve changed how the entire world lives and does business.

Founders of successful companies today command even larger amounts of capital and power than JD and Henry. With the rise of social media, they are often thrust to the forefront of their brands and the public, whether they like it or not. Some manage the responsibility better than others.

In my opinion, the best businesses use all that capital, manpower, and name recognition to do more than simply make a profit. By leading with authenticity, inspiring positive action, and influencing their brand’s vision for innovation – they try to make a change.

I wanted to take a minute to reflect on some modern founder-led brands I think are doing a killer job of creating unique, world-changing businesses and company cultures. I also want to discuss the lessons I have learned from them.

Elon Musk – Tesla

When talking about founder-led brands of the 21st century, it’s hard to pass over electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla and its outspoken CEO, Elon Musk. Love him or loathe him, he belongs in any conversation on influential founders.

While Musk isn’t technically the founder of Tesla, he is one hundred percent responsible for the company’s direction over the past decade. I think two of the strongest leadership points for Musk are his focus on branding and innovation.

Tesla created showrooms and charging stations long before his business had the sales to justify the expense. People saw the name Tesla everywhere, got curious about it, and now that’s paying off big time. Tesla today is at the forefront of the EV industry while all the other car companies play catch-up.

Behind the scenes, Tesla was also early to create a vertically-integrated supply chain – giving it almost complete control over its product and logistics. That’s another feature with a hefty upfront price tag but paid off when the pandemic hit. Now the biggest automakers in the world are rushing to copy that model.

Musk arguably even convinced China to deregulate foreign ownership of automotive companies. That’s hard to prove. However, China changed its rules around foreign ownership of EV companies shortly after he refused to enter the country.

Arguably, Tesla today is one of the frontrunners in redefining how traditional companies run. Musk is known to hate bureaucracy and traditional hierarchies. He hires other people to take care of bureaucratic processes for him.

Musk is also known for hiring relatively young, hard-working employees into high-power management positions in the company and letting them prove themselves. That inspires extreme loyalty from his employees from an early age. Musk’s focus on efficiency and rejection of traditional hierarchies has sparked a small revolution in tech companies.

Finally, I respect Musk because he has goals beyond showing year-over-year growth to shareholders. That’s hard to do day in and day out.

Sara Blakely – Spanx

Sara Blakely is an example of a founder with her hands in every part of her business, from product creation to sales. Most importantly, she created an authentic company culture with values she felt the business world lacked.

For those who know her story, Spanx very nearly didn’t happen. Blakely pitched her slimming undergarment to multiple women’s brands run by men. Most told her it would never work.

It might seem silly now, but men used to think they knew women’s fashion better than women. It wasn’t until one executive gave Blakely’s product to his daughters to try out that he agreed to start stocking Spanx. It’s a great example of how businesses can make a lot of money by listening to their customers.

Besides founding a women’s clothing company that sells products women want, Blakely strived to bring “feminine energy” into the workplace. I saw this poignant quote from her in an article:

“Twenty-one years ago when I started Spanx, I ended up in the paper in Atlanta, and I was at a cocktail party and a couple of guys came up to me and they said, ‘Sara, we read about you. Congratulations! We heard you invented something.’ And I said, ‘Yes I did, I’m so excited.’ They said, ‘Business is war,’ and then they pat me on the shoulder and they kind of laughed at each other. I went back home to my apartment that night. I was 29 and I just thought, I’m not going to war. I’m going to do this very differently. I’m going to honor a lot of feminine principles — intuition, empathy, kindness. Just allowing myself to be vulnerable through this process. And of course, a lot of the masculine energy has helped me also — it was a balance. But I wasn’t going to do it by squashing the feminine.”

Blakely worked hard to create a sales-oriented company culture that was purposely welcoming from that point forward. She regularly scheduled “oops meetings” where employees could stand up and say how they messed up and turn it into a funny story. At Spanx, it was okay to make mistakes and learn from them.

Blakely wanted everything about her product to be fun, including the way it was sold. She created a mandatory boot camp for salespeople, which, among other things, requires employees to perform standup comedy. Little things like that resonated with people and made Spanx synonymous with “fun.” Even famous actresses were flashing their Spanx on the red carpet.

The lesson we can all learn from Spanx and Blakely is that fun and positive energy are great marketing tools for any business. Many companies try to push a fun culture publicly without any authentic leadership that genuinely exemplifies that narrative, they won’t have the same effect. Blakely’s story of Spanx is not just a story of the brand but a story of her life and the experiences that shaped her vision and goals.

Jack Dorsey – Block (FKA Square)

While better known for founding Twitter, Jack Dorsey has recently been in the news for his move to solely running payment processing business Block. I admire Dorsey because he radically encourages his teams to think differently about how they work.

Dorsey is known for optimizing ways to stay productive and focused throughout the day. He manages through unconventional tactics like communicating only through voice memos on his phone that he runs through transcription apps. He says this prevents him from being sidetracked by distractions on his computer. I think that kind of mindfulness is necessary now more than ever.

Dorsey tries to bring this level of focus to his interactions with his employees too. I saw a great quote from him in this article discussing computer-less meetings at Block.

“When phones are down and laptops are closed, the team can discuss any issue at hand without distraction. We can actually focus and not just spend an hour together but make that time meaningful — and if that time is 15 minutes, then it’s 15 minutes and then we move on with our lives.”

Besides limiting distractions, Dorsey is known to walk five miles to work daily, theme each day, and create detailed agendas and goals for each team meeting. In his former company, Twitter, the culture was frequently described as a space where employees could speak freely to management about things they wanted to change.

On that subject, Dorsey has been known to push hard for employee control in his companies. Perhaps ironically, he was also quoted saying he wants Twitter to break away from its co-founders’- vision and control, calling founder-led companies “severely limiting.” However, it still seems he has some sort of vision for the world that he wants to bring around via Block.

His business goals are visionary, pushing the boundaries of innovation in the financial world.

Dorsey is a known cryptocurrency enthusiast but had pushback from the Twitter team, including his CFO, about making a crypto-centric product. His move to payments processor, Block, seems to be a bid to follow his passion and exert his vision on the world.

Block has since made headlines for being extremely bullish on cryptocurrencies, while many have expressed doubts. Dorsey even changed the business’s name to Block to better reflect its focus on blockchain and famously purchased $50 million worth of Bitcoin in 2020. All the while, Dorsey has been quietly creating arms of his business in the hopes of improving BTC’s usefulness. That may pay off down the line.

Melanie Perkins – Canva

I identify strongly with Melanie Perkins, co-founder of graphic design SaaS, Canva. Besides being roughly the same age, we both came from nondescript beginnings with no background in entrepreneurship or tech.

Canva is an excellent example of a business created by becoming intimately familiar with a customer problem and executing. Perkins spent years teaching people how to use design platforms like Adobe Creative Suite because they were so complicated. Taking that knowledge, she started a simple product to help customers create high school yearbooks. That expanded into a super app covering every aspect of design.

This super-app has unlocked a way for millions to learn design and produce high-quality content at any skill level. The cost to use Canva is many times lower than anything else on the market.

While Canva is an amazing product, what I like most about Perkins is that she believes business serves a higher purpose than maximizing profits.

When she was suddenly thrust into the limelight with a $40 billion valuation, people were even more impressed by Perkins’ philanthropic goals. She vowed to donate a 30 percent stake in Canva to a charity dedicated to eliminating poverty (about $12 billion). She is also known to regularly fundraise for 25,000 different nonprofits through her app. She doesn’t just inspire people with words, but by actions, she’s actually taking.

Canva is very public about its ethos. I like their values because they are general yet avoid the jargon many companies fall into. They are:

  • To be a force for good and empower others;
  • Pursue excellence;
  • Be a good human;
  • Make complex things simple;
  • Set crazy big goals and make them happen.

Besides revolutionizing how modern businesses design and harness goodwill marketing, Canva was also one of the forerunners of the remote work trend.

Most of Canva’s “Canvanauts” worked from homes worldwide even before the pandemic. Canva showed a lot of tired old businesses that you could still run a successful company without having employees in the office 24/7.

How I Try to Learn From the Best

Finally, I want to talk about what I am trying to contribute to my team and society with my current business, startup acquisition marketplace, MicroAcquire.

As I’ve mentioned, I think it is very much on myself as a founder to set the tone of my business – and that starts with who I hire. When I’m searching for new employees to join the “#Micromafia” I not only look for productive workers, I look for people I genuinely enjoy spending time with. It’s the best feeling in the world to go to meetings where you leave thinking, “That was really fun.”

Besides creating a great team, I’ve tried to address another problem I see again and again at major tech companies: employee burnout. There’s a reason the average tenure of a tech employee is three years.

I love working on startups. It’s like playing a video game for me, and it’s probably why I’m a founder. That said, I know my employees don’t always feel the same way. As CEO, I make sure my team knows I want them to live their lives outside of MicroAcquire.

On the business side of things, I take cues from the best. Like Musk and Dorsey, I want to preemptively create features that I know our customers will love. I knew people wanted an easy way to sell their startups because I wished I’d had one back when I was doing it.

Like Spanx and Tesla, I also strongly believe in the power of innovative branding – and I make sure we spend in areas that will give us significant returns down the line.

For example, we’ve made it easy to get MicroAcquire merchandise online completely free. The extra exposure we get from tech people rocking MicroAcquire t-shirts is more than worth the cost. We also created our own media publication Bootstrappers.com to tell the founder stories we thought major publications had missed. That’s been a huge hit with our customers, who also happen to be founders. These people traditionally have had to spam inboxes and pay for press because they didn’t raise billions in funding.

Finally, like Blakely and Perkins, I also want to actively listen to customer feedback and make sure we create a necessary and desired product. That’s why I make sure we’re constantly engaging with our community both on our website and social media. Many of the features we’ve added are just things we’ve heard mentioned multiple times from customers.

So far, I love the community we’ve created online and in the office. I don’t claim to have the winning formula, but I feel we are making a real difference out there. We’re lucky to live in a world with so many smart people getting their ideas out and making a positive change in the world.
