SPIN remote Co-Founder Arjan van Bremen in De Telegraaf

Kickstarter gave the company SPIN remote literally the ‘kickstart’ they needed. Without crowdfunding, the team behind this remote control with touchpad could have never launched their universal remote to market as quickly as they did, says Co-Founder Arjan van Bremen.

“The average household has four remote controls with all sorts of buttons that you never use. We wondered what could be a simple and elegant solution. That’s how we came up with the idea of SPIN remote SDC-1, one remote for all popular devices so that your home truly becomes ‘smart’. With simple gestures you control your existing equipment like TVs and speakers as well as the latest smart home gadgets.

We started with the three of us and wanted to test whether or not others were just as enthusiastic. We decided to quit our jobs and go all in. That was an exciting time. We developed a prototype, did market analysis and drew up a business plan. And we managed to exceed our crowdfunding goal on Kickstarter!

I just returned from Silicon Valley, which is of course the place to be for technology and innovation. It’s impressive to see how someone like Elon Musk revolutionized traditional industries with companies like Tesla and SpaceX.

Our goal now is to ensure that the SPIN remote SDC-1 is available in stores and that people embrace the product. That in our opinion is when we are truly successful.”
