URWAY

Our startup was at the idea stage before joining the FUTURELAB: Silicon Valley Acceleration Program. In the very first week of the program, we narrowed down our idea and, based on interviews with potential customers, identified gaps and how we could fill them.

Throughout the program, with the help of mentors and speakers from UC Berkeley and StartX, we tailored our product to meet market demand and essentially started building our MVP from scratch, which will soon launch and become available.

Additionally, the program fostered a pleasant and friendly environment. We connected with other founders and entrepreneurs, overcoming many challenges together while creating fun and memorable experiences.

The acceleration program provided us with invaluable knowledge and experience, allowing us to refine our business model and develop an MVP. With the resources we received, we are confident that after completing the program, we’ll secure our first investment and actively begin operating in the U.S. market.

During the customer discovery process, we confirmed that the problem we were addressing in Georgia also exists in the U.S. This realization boosted our confidence that our product can achieve success in the U.S. as well. Through interviews with potential American clients, we identified some minor differences in their expectations and needs compared to the Georgian market. We adjusted our business model accordingly to better meet their demands.

Futurelab's acceleration program played a huge role in developing our "Founder Mentality." We not only received valuable information about all the topics necessary to grow our startup, but also made direct connections with experts from Google, UC Berkeley, and various prominent Venture Capital firms.

During the acceleration program, we regularly participated in Pitch Sessions where investors with multimillion-dollar portfolios evaluated our startup. The feedback we received from them played a vital role in understanding our idea's challenges and how to address them.

Moreover, we met other like-minded founders who are now our friends! Nothing is more motivating than being surrounded by people who share the same goals for success!
In conclusion, the Thirdmerch team highly recommends Futurelab to all founders who want to not only fundamentally understand the startup ecosystem but also grow as entrepreneurs!

WINEX

Futurelab: The Silicon Acceleration Program has given me a very valuable experience as a beginner startuper and entrepreneur.

Meetings with the world's leading specialists and mentors were interesting and really useful as they along with important knowledge, gave me serious motivation and information to present my idea and ultimately validate it in the US market.

The program is distinctive as it includes a full-fledged cycle from developing a startup idea to creating its MVP. However, the partnership does not end and a rather interesting journey begins with Futurelab, experienced investors and mentors in the world's largest market.

Many thanks to this wonderful team for an unforgettable experience!

As co-founders, our expertise was primarily in tech, and we didn’t know much about methods for attracting customers. This was probably our biggest challenge.

With the help of mentors from the FUTURELAB: Silicon Valley Acceleration Program, we were able to better understand customer discovery and research, as well as gain deeper insights into the U.S. market.

After figuring this out, it became much easier to create and offer a product tailored to the specific needs of American customers.
