Slidebean has received investments from Startup Chile, DreamIt Ventures, and 500 Startups.
We started our first company in 2011 and had no idea how startups worked. Never heard of venture capital, never heard of the concept of an angel investor.
We were based in Costa Rica, where the startup ecosystem was pretty much non-existent. Still, our company was then accepted in @Dreamit Ventures in New York, which sparked a chain of events that led us to you watching this video.
We know how to pitch because DreamIt was a crash course in how the startup ecosystem worked. It was also a soft landing in New York City that allowed me to build a network.
One of the people responsible Steve Barsh, who you probably remember as a guest for some of our videos.
Steve gave the intro talk at the program, and we remember Steve's talk distinctively, as it indeed was the beginning of the journey for me. Today we'll be chatting with Steve about how DreamIt had to pivot their model.
