VIGOUR

What VIGOUR does

Vigour provides a white-label contextual multiscreen video platform sold to broadcasters, studios, and OTT video providers. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Amsterdam, Netherlands, the company operates in the online video, video streaming, broadcasting, and SaaS industries with a team of 11-50 employees. The platform enables B2B clients to deploy branded video experiences across multiple screens, suggesting a platform-as-a-service or licensing revenue model where clients rebrand and operate the technology under their own identity.

The business is led by co-founders Ramon Duivenvoorden (CEO), Jim de Beer, Marcus Besjes, and Youri Daamen, with Leo Schmidt as COO and Krystan Huberts as VP Business Development supporting commercialization. Capital formation has been entirely early-stage, spanning a 2012 Startupbootcamp-backed round, a 2013 seed of approximately $646K from Dembach Goo Informatik and Linden Mobile Ventures, and additional undisclosed seed rounds in 2015 and 2016. There is no documented activity post-2016 in the available data, and the domain vigour.io is currently listed on a domain marketplace, introducing ambiguity about current operational status. No customer logos, revenue figures, or post-2016 strategic events are documented in the input.
