Poikos - Fashionably late!
Wow. It's been a while since we've been so constantly busy. Our first few days have been a wild ride. We arrived one day before StartupBootcamp Amsterdam began, due to a workload in the UK which needed to be squared away before we flew in. This lead to a real crush the first day or two, as we moved into our Osdorp apartment for the duration. Whilst extremely spacious, it was initially fairly bare. Thankfully, our fellow startup entrepreneurs helped us out a lot with help, advice, and kindly practical support. I have a feeling that peer support is going to be of critical success factor for all of the startups lucky enough to be selected for bootcamp.
One thing which is particularly exciting is the quality of the mentors for the program. In just a few days, we've met many incredible individuals who we definitely know have the capacity to shoot our young firm to the moon. Well, we are here to get accelerated, after all! Every day is more exciting than the last. We're really looking forward to the next 84 days, and beyond.
Now all we need is someone in Amsterdam who's awesome at sales, and getting our groundbreaking body measurement system firmly into the market!
