Ladies and Gentlemen, we are delighted to announce there are 2 bonus startups in the Springboard family.
They were launched on 30th December and 17th January, after 9 months of incubation, and their financial projections look promising (well, let’s hope!). Yes the job titles Jakub and Dave (Hazell) are now sporting is D-A-D, and I’m sure they are both absolutely adorable as parents right now.

Major credit must be given to Melda and Amy, the ‘co-founders’ aka mothers who went through months of pregnancy with their partners living in Springboard land. I always felt guilty when Jakub mentioned Melda read the Springboard blog in order to hear what he was up to.
The guys both found out their partners were pregnant during the first half of Springboard, and with due dates about one week apart, the race was on – not that anyone’s competitive, ha! Well, this is one race that certainly has two winners, and we are very very proud of you guys. 
Springboard Advice on Parenting:
“Now that the seed phase is over, you have to find a parenting model that works and then scale it!” – Rait
“Rait, it’s clear you’re not that familiar with how this works… The ‘seeding’ was around nine months ago. This is beta launch!” – Kaila
“Not sure if I would describe it as a beta – but follow a lean methodology – not from a book – observe, iterate, change, repeat (forever)” – Jon
