EVENTS NOT TO MISS

AWESOME ROUNDS

Gearbooker, the fast-growing marketplace for p2p rental of electronic equipment, already successfully raised funding during their first Leapfunder round. We are currently at ~72% underway towards the target amount. Recently we shared an article about Fortune-500 camera equipment manufacturer Canon who is also experimenting with the p2p sharing economy in Australia. We think this is a very positive step and a great opportunity for Gearbooker (Canon Benelux is already one of our partners). Feel free to contact us if you’d like to know more, and don’t forget to have a look at our platform. Visit our round here.

flowpilot is a simple cash flow management tool (SaaS) for the SMBs. It helps them to solve their biggest problem: proper cash flow management. Our customers can detect risks before they become problems and mitigate those risks in just a few clicks within our tool. We are happy to announce our cooperation with the ERP System Uniconta. We plan to be available in Uniconta’s Add-on market from August on. Just €35k and 18 days to go until our round closes on June 30th. Visit our round here.

Skytree has just kicked off its Leapfunder round and still has €25K outstanding for the early bird. Over the last year, we have closed €500K in funding. Our revenues are approximately €40/50K per month and increasing year-on-year. We have recently increased our partnership with Automotive Tier-1 supplier Sogefi and are actively engaged in discussions & projects with 7 major car manufacturers. Closing this round will help us deliver for the next 12 months by when we will be close to a vehicle program. Visit our round here.
