Have you ever thought about joining an accelerator program?

We just finished our journey in Prototron fund 🚀 On April 12th, we learned we were accepted into the top 50 startups and soon after made it to the top 25. The first half of the program was smooth. 🚀 Advancing to the top 10 meant preparing for a pitching competition at #Lattitude59 in Kultuurikatel. Our old pitch deck was outdated, so we scrambled to make a new one. It took multiple revisions and mentor feedback, but we learned a lot about our long-term vision. We didn’t win, but the experience was invaluable. 💼 The program refined our vision. Explaining our business in 2-3 sentences to mentors and judges was challenging but essential for team communication and project prioritization. 💼 Despite feeling like we weren’t always directly driving the business forward, the process gave us a deeper understanding. Through pitch deck revisions, customer interviews, and workshops, we gained valuable insights. Repetition is the mother of wisdom.
