Start:up of the year 2014 - “Winning is a great recognition for us."
“I really hadn’t expected to win. I think this is a great recognition, as the evaluation committee is comprised of established entrepreneurs, and if they recognized the product potential, then this is definitely a good sign that the customers will recognize it as well. We are also already talking with some investors, at home as well as abroad, but we don’t have to rush with an investment yet, because we first want to prepare the product for the market. When searching for an investor, it won’t be that important where they’re coming from, but rather what they can offer us besides money – different kinds of knowledge, help with entering the market and similar. I have met other finalists of the competition Start:up of the year 2014 and my favourite to win had been Chipolo, considering that they already showed results on the market,” said Igor Marjanovič, CEO of the company OOG ltd. immediately after receiving the award Start:up of the year 2014.
