Every time I work on a new digital product, I'm reminded of just how complex—and rewarding—the journey from MVP to market success can be. It's not just about launching something quickly (or is it?); it's about building something that lasts, that users love, and that can evolve with time. I’d love for you to join us—whether you’re looking to refine your product strategy or just want to exchange ideas about what makes a digital product truly sustainable and cost-effective. Feel free to drop me a message if you have any questions, or just want to chat about digital products! #DigitalInnovation #MVP #SparkFestival #ProductDevelopment #FromMVPtoMarket

We did it! Our venture is up and running. 🙌 It all started with my first day at Innovatrics one and half year ago. We went for a lunch with our awesome marketing team to introduce each other. It was that very first day when we found out with Roman Ševec we both had in common our passion towards sports. I shared my desire of once founding a startup and he immediately showed interest in knowing more. As time went, and I learned more and more about biometrics, I started thinking about how the technology could be leveraged in new ways. As a former football player and a big sports fan, I always felt the frustration of waiting lines and issues with purchasing tickets. And that´s how the whole journey began. ⚽️ Fast forward, after months of hard work, problem discovery, market validation, and negotiations, we managed to secure our first funding. ✅ I really appreciate the trust put in our capabilities to bring this story to a successful end. We love experiencing the fantastic atmosphere at games, but that is only possible thanks to all the efforts and hard work done by the club´s match organization teams. Therefore, our mission is to empower football clubs to excel off the pitch. We want to make sure they have the right tools to make every sport event an unforgettable fan experience. 🤝🏻 I believe we are building the future of fan experience which will be innovative, secure, and fun for everyone! #innovation #startup #fanexperience #futureleadership

It might work for some, but what about unlocking the full potential of every student? That’s where Kim Rants and Patrick Gadd come in. They’re building a “one-stop learning platform” powered by the best large language model (LLM) out there with the goal of making learning easier, smarter, and more effective ✅ While other platforms give tools to teachers, Alice.tech flips the script by focusing on the individual student. Their AI creates a learning experience tailored to students’ strengths, weaknesses, and needs 💪 We’re thrilled to have team Alice.tech in the #PSVTech portfolio and can’t wait to continue to follow their journey 🚀 👏 https://lnkd.in/d6X3udgC #PSV #PSVTech #PSVventurehouse #Venturehouse #Venturecapital #Preseed #AI #fundbuzz
