“It is a really good program, we got really good value out of it. We did not expect any leads but were surprised by the openness of the Dutch corporates. We are very optimistic that some leads will be a good deal in the long run.”

“We were aiming to scale Sophie Boinutrients to the Netherlands, but I was still in doubt whether I was ready to scale internationally. During one of the Exploration Days, we were introduced to the Dutch innovation ecosystem and support organizations. This encouraged us to take the decision to scale since we were supported by leading organizations during the scaling process.”

Eugene Wange, Sophie’s Boinutriens for the Exploration Days

“By participating in the Go Beyond Explorer Track, we were able to test and validate our assumptions about the business model that we wanted to apply in the Dutch market. This helped us to make adjustments that were necessary to enter the Dutch market. Without the connections that we made during the Explorer track, we would have started our scaling journey too early and we probably would not have been able to reach the same results.”
