"We took part in the program and I would say it’s very helpful. Investor meetings, pitch night and Round Robbin provided a lot of feedback to us and will help us to shape our profile and do much better as we did so far. The team of VentureOut is extremely helpful, constantly present and very responsive. They’re making introductions to wherever they can to help us. Now after this one week, I really made the friendship here and built contacts in the New York that can rely on. We’re definitely not alone when we come to the New York market."

"I really appreciate we can do one on one meetings with managers, partners, and different VCs. We’re able to sit down for 5 minutes and explain our company and get great feedback. Also, the quality of my pitch really has improved after the one-hour pitch prep session."

"We came out with Ventureout New York to meet various investors, customers. VentureOut showed us how to move into the American market and expand over here. It’s a very valuable week and clearly defined. We're staying with a small excellent group of people. I made some great contacts as well as learning about immigration issues, tax and accounting issues, legal issues and anything else you might need to move your company here. The VentureOut program is very personalized and effective. It’s a lot more fun."
