  • The workshops were useful and I can put them into practice in reality with my startup. The coaches are inspiring and I can say today that I have a pitch that creates impact. Finally, we met an investor who could support us, objectives achieved! Thanks to Nex Cubed.

    YD.Cloud, Nex Cubed-Luxembourg Startup Academy, 2019

  • The significant amount of progress we have made in strategy, product development, and operational infrastructure development would not have been possible without the hands-on support from the Nex Cubed team and its network.
