In closing, StartupTree is the glue that holds it together. Our secret sauce is tracking data:
You can't improve what you don't track. On average, our customers see...
↑
Increase in Participants
Across the program including event attendees, competition participants, mentees, and cohorts via messaging.
↑
More Mentor Meetings
Mentorship often ends with the introduction. Now we can track whether there's follow up and increased visibility.
↑
Additional Judges
By making it easy to streamline communications with judges, programs strengthen alumni networks.
↑
Tracked Venture Data
When reporting period rolls around, the venture database built over time prevents retroactively scouring for data.
