Did you improve or optimize your business because of SCALEit?

"If you have ambitions to build a global tech company, there is no better place than San Francisco and Silicon Valley. No other place can you find a similar critical mass of capital, talent, experience and determination."
Mikkel Svane, CEO Zendesk
Did you improve or optimize your business because of SCALEit?
"Absolutely. We're far more focused on our core product now and have a far more structured roadmap laid out for at least the next 6-12 months."
"As a tech startup you must build relations to Silicon Valley if you want to create a global footprint. With the most important tech partners plus 1/3 of the world's venture capital, the place is an epicenter for entrepreneurs."
Juha Christensen, Sunstone Capital and Progression Partners
Did you improve or optimize your business because of SCALEit?
"A more refined business model, a sharper pitch, validation of our global potential, invaluable contacts and a finetuning of our ambition level."
"Startups are no longer a US-centric phenomenon. The Danish SCALEit initiative that connects Danish tech startups with Silicon Valley is another example of a creative way to tap into the Silicon Valley ecosystem to start a technology cluster in Denmark."
Steve Blank, Lean Launch-Pad
"It's important to be present on the US market. Even though Danish startups can do outreach from Denmark, you won't be a part of the ecosystem of partners, users and investors before you setup here."
