One day you meet a partner. And your life changes 360 degrees.
Because they truly believe in you. And open doors for you, you couldn't even imagine!
We've been lucky to have several of them. And today I want to tell you about Microsoft.
It all started last year, when we met Myriam Broeders and Peter Demeyere. We talked about Earth Plus and C-biotech, and they loved it! They nominated us for Microsoft's Entrepreneurship for Positive Impact program, and we got in! Among 40 start-ups across the world. 😲
Since then we met so many amazing people from Microsoft! And you know what they all had in common? A true passion for impact and a true desire to support us. I honestly haven't seen anything like this before.
But what happened last week, still hasn't sunk in...
We were among 5 finalists, who got selected to pitch our solution at the Eiffel Tower itself! Yes, you read it right. We were on stage inside the Eiffel Tower, showcasing what we do to top companies, foundations and investors, like World Economic Forum, Norrsken, Unilever and many others.
And with that I want to say huge thank you 🙏 to Myriam, Peter, Johan, Elsa, Marijke, Jean-Philippe, Edith, Anthony, Julia, Mathias, Jonne, Laura-Marie, Joacim, Jan, Kozeta, and many others. I can't even begin to describe, how grateful we are for your support!I can strongly recommend Microsoft's Entrepreneurship for Positive Impact program for all the start-ups out there. It's a program with a heart! 💙 And if you are curious, who the other finalists are. Please, check out their amazing innovations!👇 - Nadia Fischer and Witty Works- Jérémie VEG and Sopht- Riham Satti and MeVitae - Ganesh Shankar and FluxGenLast, but not least. A big thank you to our judges, who asked such thoughtful questions! Sara Kappelmark, Sophia Davies, Doyin Omidiran and Yasmina Zaidman, you made it tough for us! And it was amazing. 😊 And to Jason Nadal, who made sure we shined on stage, when it mattered most! 🤩
