Alumni Who Have Gone Furthr

Working with Furthr has been a fantastic experience. There is an incredibly strong programme of learning and mentoring that has played a significant role in Odyssey VC defining our investor-ready business plan and establishing investment for our company scaling activities.

We found the programme invaluable as an early-stage start-up in helping take our Business Plan that was lacking in areas and taking it to a level that could be shared with potential investors. Furthr spent a lot of time understanding LearnUpon's value proposition and challenging us on areas of our business plan that we're still under-cooked, forcing us to really think about these areas and help get us ready for the inevitable tough scrutiny that would come from investors. Furthr also provided intros to potential investors which led to the opportunity to pitch LearnUpon to investor groups like HBAN.

The one-on-one time with our Furthr consultant Heidi Corr was fantastic. She gave incredibly in-depth feedback and was able to pinpoint specific weak points for us to develop. One of the most helpful areas of the programme was the pitch development. We really evolved and edit our narrative to convey our message in a succinct and informative way.

The discovery around our value proposition was a real eye-opener for us, we began to look at our business as a whole and not just the tech, which was really important when pitching to investors. The Go-Furthr programme helped us to hire the right people, approach people in the right way and gain seed investment.
