Startup Testimonials
Ecotashira
Ma participation à l'ASC2023 a été une expérience exceptionnelle qui a profondément influencé la trajectoire de mon entreprise. Grâce à cet événement, j'ai pu établir des relations significatives avec des entrepreneurs et des experts de l'industrie, ouvrant ainsi des portes à des collaborations fructueuses. De manière cruciale, j'ai également réussi à sécuriser un fonds dédié à la digitalisation de nos processus de vente, de marketing et de production. Cette opportunité financière nous permettra de renforcer notre position sur le marché en adoptant des pratiques innovantes et en restant à la pointe de l'efficacité opérationnelle. Je suis reconnaissant envers l'ASC2023 pour cette expérience enrichissante et les opportunités tangibles qu'elle a offertes à mon entreprise.
