Be there or be Square!

Once again we proved how important taking part of different events is for start-up companies. In Pasila there was an international event for international students organized by HAAGA-HELIA. It was about how to be an entrepreneur in Finland. They had different guest speakers, an idea corner where the visitors could develop their business ideas, networking and also some stands where different start-up companies could showcase their business. We had our own stand which was very exciting and the whole event turned out to be a great success.

As you can see we had a good time and got plenty of new connections. We have been looking for a good team to test our demo version (which by the way will be ready in a month) and got many new connections and interest on that! 


And now when it's final we have the honor to announce that we got in for a mentoring program. Our mentor for the next year will be Reino Meriläinen from Arkhimedes. It's not only an accounting program provider but also they are experts in creating business plans. They interact with their customers and truly care about each and every one of them. We can't wait to start working with them and to be mentored as by the sound of the program's menu it all seems pretty awesome!

We wouldn't have been here without a fair called Oma Yritys 2012. Arkhimedes had it's own stand there and they had a chance to practise pitching in front of the video camera. Susanna pitched and what lead to another we won a competition and they wanted to take us in their mentoring program. All you need is encouragement and a positive attitude!
