Ben Hallett, CEO and Co-founder of Vygo."Vygo would not be the global scale-up that it is today if it wasn't for the ilab program and the Ventures Studio. Ventures believed in us early on and gave us the funding and early-stage coaching that we needed when we needed it. Ventures pushed us and as a result, we came out of it as stronger founders with a much stronger company."
Eban Escott, CEO and Founder of Codebots."We were part of ilab in the early days and it was a great experience to be surrounded by other entrepreneurs and companies starting out! Long Pocket now provides us that same experience while giving us a space to execute our technical vision for Codebots."
Chris Pymble, CEO and Founder of Graphics et al."The ongoing support provided by UQ Ventures after finishing the ilab Accelerator Program has been invaluable.
