Why a Printed Magazine for Women Entrepreneurs Is Coming Back — And How to Be In It
A digital feature is powerful — but it lives inside a feed that refreshes every few seconds. It can be shared, but it can’t be handed to someone at a conference, displayed on a coffee table, or gifted to a mentor the way a printed magazine can.
That permanence is exactly what’s missing from most women entrepreneurs’ media presence today: proof that lasts longer than an algorithm’s attention span.
What’s Coming
Leiden en Leuven Magazine started as a digital-first publication for a simple reason: speed and global reach let us feature founders across the Netherlands, Australia, and beyond within days, not months.
But our sister brand, Perumira Global Talent — founded by our CEO, Jaime Mybs — has already proven the next step works: a printed, physical magazine that readers actually keep. We are now actively developing a printed edition of Leiden en Leuven Magazine, to be sold physically and through Amazon, following that same model.
Why This Changes the Calculation for Founders Right Now
Digital Builds Your Footprint Your feature today is indexed, searchable, and linkable — the foundation of your online credibility.
Print Builds Your Legacy Once launched, a physical, purchasable edition adds a layer digital alone cannot: a tangible object with your name and story in it, sellable and giftable internationally.
Early Features Get First Access Founders on our Global Icon plan receive priority placement once the print edition launches — meaning the interview you complete today could become a physical page in an internationally distributed magazine tomorrow.
Get ahead of the print launch instead of applying after the queue fills. [Explore the Global Icon Plan →]
The Bigger Picture: Perumira and Leading Ladies
Perumira built its reputation featuring talents and professionals across literature, fashion, finance, and digital industries worldwide. Leiden en Leuven Magazine takes that same editorial engine and focuses it specifically on women entrepreneurs, business owners, and emerging founders — first in English and Dutch, and soon in print, following the exact path Perumira is building.
