Testimonials
Corporates have greatly strengthened our marketing programs. They have also helped us build trust for our other and future clients, as the corporate’s name gave Krenovator more credibility. We learned a lot from the corporates in terms of project management which we could directly implement in our own startup.
Once we gained the trust of our corporate partners/clients, we had new strong and reliable revenue streams. What’s more, we gained strong partners that we can collaborate with for our future projects.

It also acts as a transparent idea-stage funding deal for all our Accelerator Startups.
We guide Startups through a 2 + 3 month program with the goal that most Startups will be able to raise funds at the end of the program.
This is done by improving traction, strategy, and the other fundamentals of a Startup with the guidance of mentors and experts. We also have a strong focus on validating the market, product and revenue of the startup.
Improving these attributes of any Startup sends the right signals for any Investor to be very interested in your Startup.
