Testimonial

We learnt so much in the past months, and the final pitch was incredible to try. The feedback you receive helps put much of your learning in context, and makes your company ask yourself some tough questions. All the people we met along the way have become great friends and mentors to our journey. Companies here are at various stages, and many know more than you in various aspects. It’s an amazing network, and the people teaching you the ropes are not only the DTC experts, but also the many startups around you."
