European And African Entrepreneurs Rising
Sramana Mitra
Founder and CEO of One Million by the One Million (1Mby1M) Global Virtual Accelerator
During this week’s roundtable, we had three interesting pitches from three different parts of the world. I am particularly thrilled to see Europe and Africa becoming more active on the 1Mby1M platform. The US and India have always been a big presence.
You can listen to the recording of this roundtable here:
Telexos
Pitching first, Erhard Frenholz from Weilheim, Germany, pitched Telexos, a liquid biopsy company. The segment seems to have received huge amounts of funding already. What does it take to score a Series A at this stage of the game?
TrimesterSave
Then we had Elvis Forson from Accra, Ghana, pitching TrimesterSave, a financial literacy solution for unbanked, pregnant mothers in Africa and the developing world. Elvis needs to ramp up his business knowledge to frame the idea as a business.
Snowball
Next, we had Parul Gujral from San Francisco, California, pitch Snowball, a Cryptocurrency investment platform. We had a very interesting discussion on segmentation.
As always, I would very much like to hear about your business, so let me invite you to come and pitch at one of our free 1Mby1M public roundtables. We will be holding future roundtables at 8 a.m. PDT on:
