Connecting Plant Enthusiasts Through a Vibrant Social Platform
Founder(s) Name: Harshit Baveja & Sandeep Verma 
Company Name: Timbber
Industry Sector: Social Media
Our Brand/Product: Welcome to Timbber! Timbber is an innovative social platform connecting plant enthusiasts. It offers a community for plant lovers to share experiences, ask questions, find local plant parents, and access expert advice. Users can explore nurseries, earn rewards, and participate in a vibrant marketplace for all things plant related.
Our Story: The idea for Timbber was inspired by the lack of a cohesive community for plant enthusiasts. Many plant parents struggle with unreliable information and have no common platform to share experiences or seek guidance. The rising popularity of gardening, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighted the need for a dedicated space where plant lovers can connect, share their journeys, and receive expert advice. We have started developing a unique social platform that combines community features with resources for plant care, including discussion forums, expert advice, and a marketplace. We plan to conduct a pilot launch targeting 50-100 potential customers to form an exclusive focus group, helping refine our features and user experience.
Next Phase: We look to network with industry leaders, potential partners, and fellow entrepreneurs at The Exchange. Building those relationships can give real value in terms of insight and may open doors for future collaborations. We want to work with mentors who will guide us about how to scale our business, refine strategy, and set our way through the challenges in the startup ecosystem. We look forward to availing ourselves of the resources available at The Exchange: workshops, training sessions, access to funding opportunities, and so much more that we feel will aid in accelerating our growth and development.
Get Involved: We are looking to raise a pre-seed investment of GBP100,000. The funds will be used for technology development (40%), marketing and user acquisition (35%), hiring and personnel (18%), market research and user insight (5%), and miscellaneous operational expenses (2%). Investors will have the opportunity to be involved in a ground-breaking platform with disrupting potential in the plant and gardening industry.
