Who were the main sources?

96% of the conversation was generated by consumers. As Silicon Cape targets entrepreneurs this was ideal as they make up the same consumer market. At the same time, sponsorships aim to reach the end consumer – results show the conversation generated directly reached and was driven by the end consumer. Traditionally, a launch would be directed at the press who then communicate the message to the consumer. In this case, the chain of communication has been shortened and is more direct.
