How a venture grows

  1. 01 · Idea

    Start here

    An idea gets a line in the register. Nothing more until it earns it.

  2. 02 · Building

    Prove it

    It is built and tested in the open, with its limits written down next to its claims.

  3. 03 · Launched

    Its own front door

    A launched venture gets its own name, look and address, like silo.hllmr.com.

  4. 04 · Spun out

    Its own company

    When it outgrows the house, it can become its own company. The register keeps the link.
