Testimonials
“Silicon Gardens recognised the opportunity at the key moment of company internationalisation. With their advice and experience we managed to select the right channels and business strategy.”
”Silicon Gardens was our first external investor and recognised the opportunity early enough. Their process was extremely fast and diligent. The partners demonstrated a clear understanding of the fact that the quality of founding team, market, and early execution are the crucial basic foundations of the fastest growing companies. I can definitely recommend every aspiring entrepreneur to get in touch.
