Olympe empowers anyone to translate ideas into software solutions, from “brain to market”, in a few clicks. We met its co-founder and CEO talking about his upcoming trip to Silicon Valley:
Why do you choose Silicon Valley as your business development destination?
In our field, the long path towards being a global player goes through convincing people in Silicon Valley, and more generally to have customers in the US.
What do you want to achieve from the trip?
We have 3 main objectives. First, we want to get some feedback on our business idea and business model from people there, and more generally have a feel about the atmosphere in the Valley area. Second, we want to have one VC from the US on our next investment round. And finally it’s a chance to get in touch with potential local customers or partners.
Why is venture leaders TECH beneficial for your company?
We have been bootstrapping in the shadow so far and now we want to start a new chapter in the development of our startup. This new chapter includes a need for increased visibility, contacts with VCs and some presence in the US, such as in Silicon Valley.
