LEARN MORE ABOUT THE SMARTSCALE STARTUPS!
SmartScale’s Demo Day on July 25 saw the gathering of many crucial stakeholders of the local startup ecosystem, including startups, investors, accelerators, corporates, the media and the government, who convened at Raintree to watch the pitches of the 11 SmartScale startups.
The programme, a collaboration by Mekong Strategic Partners and Seedstars, covered topics such as consumer targeting, growth and funding strategies specially designed using lean and growth methodologies for faster scaling. This came in the form of various methods, such as workshops with mentors, personal meetings with entrepreneurs in residence and ecosystem dinners.

“There has been a major surge in the growth of tech startups, at the same time there is a need for support programmes like SmartScale. Many of these startups still want support to build more sustainable business models, figure out how to scale, come up with scaling strategies, and secure financing. A missing piece is also understanding what investors want, they want to see more diverse teams, they want to see validated business models, they want to see startups that have a deeper understanding of consumer needs. And in turn, SmartScale powered by Seedstars [was created],” explained Kate Heuisler, Chief of Party at DAI, USAID’s Development Innovations.
