What entrepreneurs think of IPOready

Carlos Domenech
The key takeaways from this programme is that you get a lot of experiences from experts that can be useful in your process of going public on Euronext. As a biotech company we need a lot of economic resources so the best thing to do is to go public and generate milestones that we hope are going to be positive.

Nicolas Sordet
It was great to meet with peers, discuss about all the challenges that all of us need to face whatever the sector is and also to participate to the specific and very interesting conference programme. We have met almost all the IPO ecosystem during the programme, so we had the list of contacts, the first opinion with who we could be willing to work with.

The networking and peer-to-peer learning on IPOready was invaluable. I really enjoyed watching ATA and our peers refine our strategy throughout the programme which was evident during the pitch sessions. I also gained great insights through engaging with presenters on the programme who openly shared their experiences in scaling their companies and the sources of funding they used along the way.
