  • TEA REX is a revolutionary fruit tea made only of fresh, not dehydrated, fruits and roots with the mission to change the beige bag status quo of tasteless teas with an infusion that delivers both exceptional flavours and nutrition.
  • Winning Minds is a Conversation AI Analysis software that captures and analyses discussions at work to support managers invest in the right talents, teams and customers. WM team has translated the social and emotional intelligence abilities to demonstrated skills and behaviours.
  • Not in the Guidebooks is a marketplace bringing together premium private local authentic experiences with independent travellers looking to create their own itinerary and not wanting to be part of a tour group.

To close the presentations, Joseph Zipfel, Investment Manager at SFC, updated investors on the progress of the SFC Angel Fund, which currently comprises 14 companies and will be closing at the end of March.

The night then concluded with a networking session that ran until late. There, investors and entrepreneurs were able to further discuss the opportunities showcased over drinks and nibbles.
