Christian Videbaek
“I took part in the CFLA first cohort with my start-up, and it was an absolutely amazing six weeks. Through this I learned a lot about the world of raising funds for your start-up. I got access to investors, and learned what they focus on when they invest money in a start-up.
I was challenged on my way of thinking about Football Tribes which was uncomfortable and hard work at times, and therefore extremely valuable for the journey I have ahead.
I can highly recommend this experience to anyone out there.”
