Я був дуже радий взяти участь в Unicorn Battle в Дубаї. Завоювання 1-го місця цього престижного конкурсу - одне з моїх останніх досягнень. Як підприємець, я активно збираю кошти і дуже зайнятий масштабуванням свого стартапу, тому я шукав заходи з грошовими призами! Але після того, як я взяв участь в Unicorn Battle, вигоди виявилися значнішими, ніж швидкі гроші. Всі 18 суддів були активними інвесторами або консультантами, які допомагають залучати інвестиції, їх відгуки і поради були вражаючими і корисними для переходу на наступний рівень. Організація Олени і Катерини була чудовою, спілкування і кава-брейки дозволили мені встановити нові зв'язки, і відразу після церемонії нагородження до нас звернулися два зацікавлених інвестора.

Обов'язково буду брати участь знову в майбутньому.

Усі Журі вражаючі активні інвестори - і вони були дуже захопленні питаннями та відповідями. Підготовка події була чудовою і всі компанії, які брали участь в Битві були чудовими. Якщо у вас є можливість взяти участь в одній з цих подій - зробіть це!

Головне, чим би я хотла поділитися, подія перевершило всі наші очікування.

Місце було дійсно переповнено зацікавленою аудиторією, і це створило правильний емоційний стан для стартапів, які виступали і для глядачів. Ми зустріли кілька потенційних інвесторів і придбали дуже цінні зв'язку під час нетворкінга після пітч сесії.

Через 1 місяць ми все ще на зв'язку з тими людьми, яких зустріли на Startup Battle та спільно працюємо над розвитком Third Opinion Care.

Ми обов'язково розглянемо участь в наступних заходах, організованих цією ж командою.

Після прийняття участі в Битві Стартапів, яка була організована Startup.Network в Силіконовій Долині. Ми отримали колосальний досвід як побудувати свій стартап і залучити інвесторів. Особливо приємно було поговорити з МС. Він дав безліч порад. Якби не це заходи, ми б їх точно ніколи не почули. Потім ми активно працювали над пошуком інвесторів, яких ми все-таки знайшли. Потім був етап юридичного аудиту, на якому ми зрозуміли, що ми не хочемо інвестицій на ранньому етапі. Ще одна порада від Майка Сандлера, його критика, якщо бути точним, допомогла нам знайти правильний шлях. На даний момент у нас є кілька інвесторів з числа хірургів, але поки ми управляємо самостійно.

Тепер у нас є MVP, який являє собою не просто набір інструментів, але і є хірургічним роботом. Виробництво первинного продукту відбувається на Тайвані. На цьому етапі він знаходиться на стадії сертифікації.

Якщо хто-небудь запитає мене, чи потрібні мені будь-які інвестиції на ранніх стадіях, я скажу «ні». Набагато важливіше розвивати правильний нетворк і отримувати правильні поради. Все, що сталося, це заслуга Startup.Network!

Привіт!

Ми брали участь у ряді заходів Startup.Network: в Москві, Пітері, Мінську, Алмати, Харкові, а також взяли участь в Startup Battle в Сан Франциско.

Вважаю, що саме це допомогло нам пройти відбір з більш ніж 1000 претендентів в акселераційну програму в Голландії, де ми були єдиним стартапом зі Східної Європи.

Заходи дуже гарні для розвитку нетворку та отриманні зворотного зв'язку. Зокрема, відгуки інвестора з Долини, які ми отримали на Startup Battle, допомогли нам намацати більш цікаву нішу і зробити pivot проекту. З радістю, продовжимо співпрацю з Startup Network!

Привіт!

Ми брали участь у двох заходах Startup Network - в Москві (Битва Стартапів Рітейл) і в Mountain View (Silicon Valley Startup Battle).

У Москві зайняли 1-е місце і отримали увагу преси, інвесторів. Були слушні поради і зустрічі з декількома інвесторами.

У Силіконовій Долині зайняли 3-е місце і прямо на заході Марвін Ляо (партнер 500 Startups) запросив нас в акселератор. Знайомство з Марвіном нам допомогло ще раз, уже в Росії.

Із задоволенням будемо брати участь в заходах Startup Network і далі!

Дякую!
