Important results from the project
Detectivio´s goal when participating in REACH was to accelerate the commercialization of the technology by understanding and implementing useful methods that have emerged in Silicon Valleys´s successful entrepreneurial culture, expand our professional network and be inspired by other entrepreneurs and teams.
Expected long term effects
Detectivio´s method for working with the business model, product development, communication with customers and users, and tests, have changed and improved significantly based on insights from the REACH program. Repeated real-world training with valuable feedback from mentors, coaches and investors in Silicon Valley have contributed to improving the presentation of the company and have been the starting point for important improvement processes.
Approach and implementation
The first part was an intense two-week program in Palo Alto and San Francisco including workshops, mentor meetings, investor events, networking events and pitch training. The second part was first rescheduled, and then converted to virtual online program (because of the pandemic) with more workshops, investor contacts and pitch training.
