Creativity and entrepreneurship go hand in hand.
Our talented community of creators brings entrepreneurial dreams to life on a daily basis, and we are lucky enough to see firsthand how great branding and design help fuel the success of businesses all over the world.
To celebrate the opportunities and success stories sparked by creative collaboration, 99designs has teamed up with global media and education company Foundr to produce a special free edition of their digital magazine. The magazine is illustrated entirely by the 99designs community, and celebrates entrepreneurial creativity in all its forms.
Stories of creative entrepreneurship

The creative process and the entrepreneurial journey are strikingly similar. Both rely on observation, prototyping and iteration, as well as an acceptance of failure, experimentation and critique. And both are made magical by that spark of excitement and inspiration that strikes when you least expect it.
In this magazine you can read stories, tips and advice from some of the world’s most successful entrepreneurs who have staked their careers on creative thinking, including Jack Dorsey, founder and CEO of Square; Anthony Casalena, founder and CEO of Squarespace; Clark Valberg, cofounder and CEO of Invision, and many more.
Creativity is contagious. Pass it on!
