We’re delighted to announce that Bizimply will soon be coming to New York. We recently competed in a competition run by Niamh Bushnell, Dublin’s Commissioner for Startups for the opportunity to be part of the ERA NY virtual accelerator. We presented to some great judges including Jon Axelrod – ERA, Gil Dibner – DFJ Espirit London, Elaine Coughlan – Atlantic Bridge, Conor Stanley – Tribal VC and John Flynn – ACT Venture Capital.
In the end we were chosen along with Love & Robots, Indigo Connect, Legalshine and LogoGrab to participate in the NY virtual accelerator programme.
This accelerator programme is designed to give Irish companies targeting the US East Coast markets, the opportunity to work one-on-one with a handpicked industry-leading ERA mentor with the focus of the programme being on marketing, business development, strategic partnerships, funding and sales.
John Williams
Our mentor for the programme is John Williams who we are super excited about!! John was Co-Founder & Head of Sales at BuzzTable. Prior to BuzzTable, he co-founded Branded Evolution, an NYC-based sales, marketing and business development firm that assisted early-stage technology companies transact with brands, agencies, and publishers.
We are really looking forward to meeting John and are planning to get our feet on the ground in New York and talk with as many business owners as we can in the coming weeks. We cant wait to bring businesses in NY and across the United States a better, simpler and more efficient solution to manage their workforce. We want to help improve daily business life for them and their employees with smart technology built for their industry.
A huge thanks to Niamh Bushnell the Dublin Commissioner for Startups for organising the event and Jon Axlerod @ERA for his interest in the great startups we have here in Ireland and providing us with a brilliant mentor. Now to go find my passport!
