We are happy to share incredible news! Our startup project OUTEX has won the FIRST place at the National Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge 2024! 🏆

This victory was a real surprise for us, as we competed with many powerful startups. But it was the constant work, perseverance and faith in our work that led us to this result. 💪

🚀 There is an even more exciting stage ahead: The World Youth Entrepreneurship Challenge in New York, where we will not only pitch our startup and represent Ukraine on a global scale, but also exhibit at the startup stand! 🌍

This is just the beginning, and we are incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported us along the way. Special thanks to @uf_incubator and our mentor Iryna ☺️🤍

Our OUTEX team took part in SEEDplus - International Startup Competition, which took place on November 5 in Lisbon! 🇵🇹

We presented our team decently, received a special award and were invited to workshops from this SEEDplus organization. 💡

Thank you all for an unforgettable experience and a great time! ❤️

We also want to thank our @MartyniukKyrylo for such a great pitch! You can watch part of this pitch in the post!

Our team was honored to represent OUTEX startup at the international competition NFTE (Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship), a platform that brings together young entrepreneurs from around the world. These three days were a unique opportunity for us to learn, develop and compete among the best 🔥.

📅 Competition program:

🔹 Day 1: It all started with a welcome dinner at the iconic Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square - an emotional start in the heart of New York City. After that, we attended lectures and panel discussions at the office of UBS, one of the leading Swiss banks.

🔹 Day 2: Training day. We practiced our pitches, talked to experts and received valuable advice. Every minute was spent on improving our ideas.

🔹 Day 3: Two stages of the competition. In the first half of the day, we competed at the UBS office, where our team managed to become the best in their group. The second part of the competition took place in the historic building of the New York Stock Exchange, and it was there that the final took place.

🏆 We are proud to have won 2nd place and received a $1000 grant! This victory is not only about the award, but also about the invaluable experience we have gained.

💡 New York gave us unforgettable emotions, new acquaintances and confidence that nothing is impossible.

We thank the organizers of NFTE, our mentors and everyone who supported us along the way!

On December 7, Julia Tkachenko, co-founder of our startup OUTEX, took part in a panel discussion with the Wild.Codes and VyshyvAI teams. She shared her experience of participating in the first incubator, talked about the development of our startup, and inspired the audience with new ideas 💡

Such events are very important for the development of the entrepreneurial ecosystem and the formation of new partnerships. We are confident that this is just the beginning of the path to big changes in the world of technology and innovation 🚀

We thank the organizers for the opportunity to share our experience and look forward to new projects that will inspire and change the future 🙌💥
