JIC ENTER

"The JIC ENTER programme represented a key turning point for our project that made us think deeper about our problems, about our target customers and about our goals in life. JIC is a platform that turns projects into viable companies. Every day you meet people dealing with similar problems who are eager to share their experience with you. JIC was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me."

"Our expectations of the JIC ENTER programme were not great.  However the outcome has proved to be significant and valuable. Thanks to consultations and a great variety of services we have managed to prepare ourselves for the company’s first steps and realise what our direction should be. With clear goals and strategies, our business has picked up speed. The contacts established thanks to networking activities at JIC are very valuable as well."

"Being an engineer specialising in development, I had no way of knowing what kind of obstacles I would encounter in business, let alone how to prepare myself for them. The JIC ENTER programme showed me what my first steps must be about. I was introduced into a friendly and enthusiastic environment full of contacts with companies, prototyping centres or people from the academia who helped me move forward. Without the support from JIC ENTER I would have been stuck."

Thanks to the complexity of the JIC ENTER programme we managed to resolve most issues that all new companies have to deal with. We have perfected the essence of the product; we managed to secure a spot in the JIC coworking programme and eventually, as we grew, we got ourselves our own offices. Thanks to the neverending networking activities of JIC we met our first investors and established valuable contacts with business partners.

"Our involvement in the JIC ENTER programme helped us realise what we want to achieve with our company. More importantly, we have established valuable contacts with professionals in the field of tax or legal consulting, resulting in solid foundations for the company and eliminating the fear that important issues have been ignored."

"I expected the JIC Enter programme to turn my excellent idea into a viable business. In fact, it has given me a lot more: an excellent environment for learning through interactions and cooperation with other people, allowing me to realize that I had been looking at it all wrong. I learned to see ideas primarily from the business point of view, and only then from my emotional point of view."

"Throughout the JIC ENTER programme all key steps were pointed out to us that needed extra attention. The programme guided us through the early stages of the project, allowing us to realise what our goal was, as well as to determine every person’s role in order to achieve the goal. We are still meeting many people at JIC who enrich us, or even become our clients."
