Getting Funding
We entered Debut Labs with no prior experience in starting a business and with just a Napkin Idea. However, with the mentorship, network, and resources, we were able to achieve product-market validation. This has given us the confidence to launch our idea as it has been proven that this is what people want. We have come a long way, progressing from zero to one.
