Born from passion in 2002
Our passion for transforming business visions into reality using Internet technologies led to the incorporation of Virtualisers in May 2002. Virtualisers bvba is privately held, headquartered in Brussels (Belgium) and has been profitable since conception. Our organic growth and lack of external shareholders put us in a unique position to create our own future in today’s networked economy. We are at our best working with visionary individuals and ambitious clients. We help them reinvent their organisations, and the markets they work in, in order to achieve sustained growth or raise public service levels. We accomplish this by providing cost effective innovation, strategic consulting, management resources, creative design, technical development, marketing support, lead generation and operational services that all result in demonstrable success for our divisions, clients and their projects.
Virtualisation leitmotiv
“Abstracting things out” is the leitmotiv in the way we work and deliver our services. We also believe the Virtualisation concept stretches far beyond the boundaries of technological server and storage virtualisation and is applicable to many fields of our everyday life and economy. In our globalised and technologically advanced world, businesses are increasingly gathering together to generate competitive advantage. These new “virtual ways” of collaboration have quickly been embraced by knowledge workers and service providers around the globe over the last few years and are now being adopted by more “classic” industry players. Virtualisers is a specialist, networked organisation supplying co-sourced business development services. We try to change the go-to-market rules for our partners.
Since “the proof of the pudding is in the eating’” we are not afraid to demonstrate our point by making the sales ourselves. Because we “eat our own dogfood” and having tested this approach on our very own pet projects and divisions, we are even willing to work on a no-cure, no-pay basis for specific projects.
Services
Virtualisers provides comprehensive business solutions and likes to believe it is active in the reinvention business. Virtualisers is capable of analysing companies’ marketing & technology strategies and stands for innovative development & business strategies. We are used to rapidly, efficiently and cost-effectively supply customers with personalised services, solutions and products. Virtualisers’s success has been its strength in recognizing opportunities and defining effective strategies for its customers and divisions, while combining its technical expertise with rapid development and deployment. Furthermore, a strong commitment to customer satisfaction and cost effective consulting is why Virtualisers quickly became one of the most wanted solution providers in Belgium.
Divisions
Virtualisers also acts as a legal structure to start-up new concepts, ventures & service divisions, before selling or “spinning off” these successful initiatives into independent companies. These divisions also help us to stay sharp and put our ideas and technological skills to the test. Visit our “division” section to have a look at some recent examples.
Truly collaborative philosophy
We look around and spend a lot of time online. We read as much as we can. We go out and have fun. We like to take things apart, see how they work, and put them together again to see if they still work. And we love figuring out solutions that help you understand what the problem really was in the first place. Why? Because we are curious, interested & involved. And because what comes out of us is only as good as what goes in. We study, we examine a project in all it’s aspects, we discuss ideas with our customers, we evaluate existing situations, we check market conditions, revenue models etc… We try to figure out a concept that matches to all aspects of a project. So basically our services are the result of hard work end experience rather than an eruption of pure talent.
Depending on the project or demand, we design, conceptualise, virtualise, develop, produce, direct, handle, manage, deliver and entertain. Our philosophy is that a good idea can come in many forms and that it takes the right people to bring it to life. That is why for every single concept we develop, we also look for the right partner with the right expertise to turn the idea into a reality. We work on lots of different kinds of projects by putting together teams of collaborators and consultants when we need them. We are a truly collaborative, risk-sharing partner with a low-mass organisational structure and finely focused expert resources. We bundle our activities within a flexible team of creative professionals and made strategic and durable alliances with complementary partners and professionals in our network. This virtualisation approach keeps our overhead costs to an absolute minimum and avoids you as a smart customer to pay for unnecessary idle time. Please go elsewhere if you plan to pay for luxurious headquarters, reception desk employees and exclusive company cars. We care about your ROI and so should you.
No job is too big or too small
Whatever the project is, we think it takes seven steps to get it done right. From developing a strategy (which results in a clear statement of the project’s goals) to supervising deployment and production. Each step is critical to a project’s success. (You will learn about the five steps in between, by climbing our staircase as a customer).
We are what we do. We are not some giant on-line advertising agency, global consulting company, on-line publisher, executive management “body shop”, webbuilder or hyped “new media” firm. But we do the kinds of things that those places sometimes do. How? By combining our experience with the resources of talented collaborators and the encouragement of great clients, we keep re-inventing ourselves to get things done. So far this resulted in interesting, relevant work that people respect.
Desire to help
The key to our success is a strong desire to help our clients succeed. At Virtualisers we partner with our clients and are fully committed to the success of each client’s business. For us, projects aren’t complete when they are deployed; they are complete when the business vision is realised. We are fortunate to have worked on many such projects. Our smart clients always had something interesting to say or show, and wanted to make sure lots of people could experience their message, product or service. And we are most happy to have helped.
