SharePeople: from customer to co-owner

What if your clients aren't clients, but co-owners?

That was the idea behind the founding of SharePeople – a cooperative in which 15,000 freelancers help each other in the event of disability. Not an insurer. Not a profit machine. But a network for and by entrepreneurs.

From day one, founder Cosmas Blaauw wanted his members not only to participate, but also to share in the profits. As co-owners.

But how do you distribute shares among hundreds of customers without chaos?

Eyevestor provided the answer: a digital platform that makes ownership accessible, scalable, and transparent. No notary, no spreadsheets – simply well organized.

And with results:

✔️ Customers became co-owners.

✔️ The first investor (Startupbootcamp) was bought out.

✔️ The cooperative remained 100% in the hands of the people for whom it is intended.

But it doesn't stop there.

Employee participation works. And in a labor market where talent has choices, participation is more important than a job title.

With Eyevestor, SharePeople takes the step from customer and colleague to co-owner – and in doing so, builds sustainable growth, driven by the people who make it happen.
