As part of JETRO (Japan External Trade Organization) x Techstars Startup City Acceleration Program. Over three months, we connected with founders, business leaders and thought leaders to learn from the best and grow our business. The end of the program saw us showcase our story and demo on e27.co, Southeast Asia’s leading tech community, through a live online Zoom.
We’re looking forward to the growth opportunities that come from being a part of this incredible experience; thank you to everyone who got involved!
