SEE WHAT OUR LAST COHORT SAYS

I’ve been a co-founder before, but this is the first time I’ve ever participated in a programme like this. I found the programme was very useful for focusing our message and execution of our plan. The information that was covered in just one week, would have taken months to cover on our own. I wish we had the opportunity to attend the bootcamp sooner in the life of Sitehop!” –  Melissa

“Quite simply the best business support programme I have been on. An invaluable experience that has provided a host of knowledge and contacts that has not only reduced my learning curve in the start up phase but likely to be a significant contributor as why PinsPin will be successful. The team at Cyber Runway should be recognised for their excellent programme and hard work”  Peter
