mobile heights
business center
in an attempt to stimulate growth within the ICT sector in the southern region of Sweden, a project called Mobile Heights Business Center is being executed. We’ve been selected as one of the teams, that will get the chance to participate in this constellation, between the industry, investors and entrepreneurs, to create win-win synergies in the region. On tuesday the teams got the chance to pitch their ideas to the investors and to the collaborating corporation. The event was very successful and we’ve got new meetings planned with some very interesting possible co-operators.
On the 29th of May it will be official: who’s in the project, what’s the deal, and what will happen next. One of the team, our friends at Saplo was broadcasted on the Local News Sydnytt on tuesday night, when they revealed the event.
