Katerina Saridaki give the answer to the question of the days:<\/p>\n\n

“Why join the CapsuleT accelerator that focuses solely on tourism startups and not a generic?”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\u039a\u03b1\u03c4\u03b5\u03c1\u03af\u03bd\u03b1 \u03a3\u03b1\u03c1\u03b9\u03b4\u03ac\u03ba\u03b7, \u0394\u03b9\u03b5\u03c5\u03b8\u03cd\u03bd\u03c4\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1 \u03b5\u03c0\u03b9\u03c4\u03b1\u03c7\u03c5\u03bd\u03c4\u03ae \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5\u03c1\u03b9\u03c3\u03bc\u03bf\u03cd CapsuleT<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

“When we talk about the dominant industry of our country with so many specialized subcategories<\/strong>, so many bodies, institutions, faculties and professionals to make up it, I believe that and \u03bf\u03b9 startups<\/strong> who create solutions for him have the need to belong from the very early stages of their development to the market in question, in the “tourism ecosystem”.<\/strong> Thus, they will be able to deepen in the field, to have Direct access to experts and professionals who will give them key answers and solutions to their questions or directions for their product<\/strong>, in order to finally fill any “gaps” they may have for the specific sector and the way it operates.<\/p>\n\n

At the same time, the fact that all teams are at an early stage in their business activity and belong to the same industry, creates a sense of community\/”business family”<\/strong>, where they support each other and at the same time build synergies between them either in terms of creating new, additional services or even synergies and partnerships in terms of reaching new customers. These seem to me to be the main differentiations from a general interest accelerator.<\/strong> Where the holdings are from all market sectors.”<\/p>\n\n

Hotellisense (1st place, 2nd cycle)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

“Tourism is perhaps the only “heavy industry” in our country. It is the industry that enables the development of many new ideas and solutions generated by technology startups.<\/strong> For a startup to participate in CapsuleT, means that will get holistic experience of knowledge, guidance and opportunities for development.<\/strong> And that comes from the industry itself<\/strong> which already largely supports a country’s economy. At the same time, the specialization of the mentors, the jury, the workshops<\/strong> and the overall actions of the program is the magical ingredient of the subsequent success of a technological startup”.<\/p>\n\n

CapsuleT –<\/strong> Campsaround (1\u03b7 \u03b8\u03ad\u03c3\u03b7, 3\u03bf\u03c2 \u03ba\u03cd\u03ba\u03bb\u03bf\u03c2)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

“Our participation in the CapsuleT program which is an accelerator exclusively for tourism businesses brought us into direct contact with the market to which we are addressed<\/strong>. The experience of the people who are there either as mentors, consultants or as members of the evaluation committee, but also the discussions with executives of tourist units helped us better understand how the market works<\/strong>, to get specialized feedback about our business but also to get to know other companies in the industry with which we had the pleasure to cooperate and help each other. All this specialized experience and knowledge could not exist in a general-interest accelerator.”<\/p>\n\n

Vivestia (1st place, 4th cycle)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

“Tourism is not a simple industry that one can easily venture, not because one is not qualified but because tourism In addition to the passion and passion for him and in general for the domestic product, he also needs the necessary knowledge<\/strong>. Knowledge that only a specialized body – accelerator can offer. That’s how we found CapsuleT. Who brought us close to people with the necessary knowledge and skills<\/strong> to introduce our idea to the tourism industry in a targeted manner.”<\/p>\n\n

Kleesto (3rd place, 4th cycle)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

“A startup, especially in its first steps, needs all the support it can find<\/strong>. Such support comes through the company’s participation in acceleration programs. From these, she receives guidance on issues that concern her from experienced professionals in their field. In addition, it comes into contact with people in the market through whom it is given the opportunity to create opportunities. By choosing an accelerator that focuses on its subject, the results it can achieve are better than any other case.<\/strong> The companies with which he will associate will be from the same industry as her. It will be able to develop synergies with them. But also to help each other in solving the problems they will face, as they will be similar. Finally, the people with whom she will connect will be relevant to her subject<\/strong>, thus increasing the likelihood that they will contribute directly to her activity.”<\/p>\n\n
