Computer Support Blog

The culture of entrepreneurship is one that consistently breeds new ideas from startup founders and innovators meeting and exchanging concepts.  Cool person Reinier Evers has been part of this culture for a long time, but has recently decided to give back into it by founding Springwise.  Springwise is a tech blog/service hybrid that posts three new entrepreneurial concepts or prototypes on the market each day.  Springwise does not post about established companies or startups but budding concepts, the sorts of ideas that inspire entrepreneurs rather than simply report on news, trends, or people.  Whether it’s a new idea about how to connect people with services like computer repair or a way to use technology to improve bike safety, Springwise will post about them to the entrepreneurial community that it serves.   Evers’s hope is that he will promote connections internally in the entrepreneurial community and spark potential innovation.
