Startrise, which is participating in our Next Valley program, was selected among the top 100 startups in the Techarena competition in Stockholm last month! 🔥🚀
‘We’ve only been in the Netherlands for six months. But this short time has already been a challenging, yet immensely rewarding journey. The support of our Back Hans Kamphuis has also been incredibly valuable in the past few months,’ says co-founder Arash Rayatian.
Startrise is an AI-driven, all-in-one platform that assesses the readiness level of early-stage startups. It also offers tailored growth strategies and helps startups to connect them with the right network.
Together with co-founder Sheyda Tayefehhashemi, Arash traveled to Stockholm to attend the Techarena event, Scandinavia’s largest technology and business event. Over 12,000 business leaders, founders, investors, and decision-makers gathered to exchange knowledge, foster new collaborations, and inspire one another. 💡
The co-founders participated in several valuable venture capital gatherings, where they built strong connections. They also took part in an Investor Speed Dating session for the top 100 startups, giving them the opportunity to engage in direct negotiations with investors. It’s clear that their time at Techarena was well spent!
