SoSooper was honored to be selected finalist in the Harvard Business School New Venture Competition for Europe & Israel.
For this global entrepreneurial contest open to HBS alumni, our zone was the most competitive: there were 26 contestants for 5 finalist spots to pitch to a jury and close to 100 investors. I had almost not submitted our application because we are just launching our prototype and most companies would already be generating revenues.
SoSooper was invited among the pitchers!
We had 8 minutes to share our story, our value, our success, and our dreams. Followed by 6 minutes of questions from judges and the crowd…mostly grey-suited men sprinkled with a dozen women. The ideal audience for a parenting app?!

What a THRILL to defend my passion and to present a business plan that benefits parents, parenting professionals, and investors.
SoSooper came in 3rd place…quite awesome considering that we were the only company without a commercialized product and without revenues. It means these seasoned business folk wish us
prosperity
courage
&
luck!
