San Mateo FinTech Portfolio Testimonials
"The main value that we find from EvoNexus are the mentors. We have access to mentors from the former head of IoT from Qualcomm to the former SVP of global commerce from Nike, so we have a tremendous amount of mentorship and guidance on fundraising, sales, PR, and marketing."
“With the help of EvoNexus’ domain expert mentors, the Approved team grew in size, raised capital and secured its first mortgage lender clients. Just after graduating from the incubator, Approved’s milestones within the program caught the eye of Credit Karma. ”
“EvoNexus helped us transition a university-created technology into a revenue generating company, providing us access to our first investors, valuable mentorship, and a collaborative environment that greatly facilitated our growth and success.”
“We’re indebted to EvoNexus for bringing us in from Silicon Valley. They provided highly valuable industry contacts and the credibility we needed in our fundraising. By virtue of EvoNexus’ location, Qualcomm beat Samsung Semiconductor in acquiring us.”
