“I had the pleasure to attend the one-week Bootcamp in Menlo, CA, and I am so grateful to the BootUP team. They provided clear guidance into the Silicon Valley ecosystem, mindset, and spirit. Bootcamp indeed was a transformational moment for our company and my professional growth. I recommend this experience to any startup, at any stage, from Europe as it is eye-opening.”
“Bootcamp is the best experience ever, best decision ever with unexpected results. The environment, the mentors, the format, everything is conducive to learning and growing me outside my comfort zone.”
“Great thanks to Mukul and BootUp team for one week Bootcamp in Menlo Park CA. We have received a very good guidance how to approach US market. This has created a positive difference in our mindsets and outlook regarding our company development. I can definitely recommend BootUP as a partner for US market and looking forward to our future cooperation.”
“I spent 2 weeks together with BootUP team in Palo Alto, just in the heart of Silicon Valley in his bootcamp. Program was excellent. It really made an impact to me. It is something very emotional. During the program I’ve met with people doing a real business in SF, VC etc. Coming from Europe I was confronted with different thinking and business values. This is my biggest takeaway. Highly recommend the bootcamp.”
“In just a few days, they were able to really give me a very complete perception of how the Silicon Valley ecosystem works and in what is so different if compared to Europe. Other than that, we have been trained a lot on mindset practices for startup founders and on how to pitch our ideas in the shortest, but most effective way. Last but not least, the program was completed by many witnesses of founders, VCs, mentors that brought their experiences.
I highly recommend BootUP bootcamps to all the founders and startups.”
