Why others are joining – Joris from Whispp shares his story

 

Real business impact at 4YFN

After four intense days of networking, pitching, and meetings, many startups left 4YFN with concrete leads and collaboration opportunities.

“We are here for the second time. The stage we are in now is so different from where we were last year. It went really fast. We met many interesting potential clients and people we already collaborate with. And that in just a few days.”


“We had a lot of people showing interest, and yesterday an obesity program approached us. They are based here in Spain, and I think we signed them up as a customer.”


“We were invited by Nokia to a Sustainable Leaders event, where we could share our journey and showcase what we have been doing so far to a group of sustainability directors. It was a great opportunity to explore potential partnerships along the way.”
