100% Success in Pitching in 2018/19
After we started at the end of 2018 with the support by the House of Logistics and Mobility (HOLM) GmbH and therewith we opened our headquarter in Frankfurt we continued our applications for support by the ESA BIC Hessen & Baden-Württemberg, WI-Bank, Landesmittel. The innovation of MYLi – YOUR Travelbuddy was strong enough to withstand the detailed questions of the strict scientifical jury. The last application took a long time but in the end we were successful: We got the support by the „EXIST – Gründerstipendium“ which is provided by the Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Energie, Projektträger Jülich, Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH and will be supported by Hochschule Worms.
Last but not least we got our first 6-digits-Business Angel for just a very little percentage. Our Team grew from one to six, and the chance that it grows at the first half of 2020 is very high – probably two or three software developers will join our team.
BUT: All these milestones had never been possible without our accompanied companies, universities, partners, mentors, auditors, students, trainees, families and friends! Thank you so much for supporting us in 2019!
We will do our best for all travelers to realize our ambitious aim!
For all interested readers:
Some weeks ago we finished our first prototype. Moreover we were able to create an automated trip in a testing area: After we defined some parameters (e.g. time, car, nature walks, historical buildings, accommodations,…) we were able to create an automated trip from Hamburg through North Rhine-Westphalia to Munich. Even if it was only in a testing area – for us it was a technical milestone. Hopefully we can continue with this success!
Happy Christmas!
Your Team MYLi – YOUR Travelbuddy
