Entrepreneurs Helping Entrepreneurs. $27,300 for Kiva by 27/3/2011

Congratulations to my classmates!!

Posted by Steven Speldewinde On May - 1 - 2009

273 would like to extend a big congratulations to our classmates Lennart (and his brother Loren) of IC3D Media  and David of Tailorbet  who came 2nd and 3rd respectively in the Venture Cup Syd business plan competition.  Having spent time with both of these teams learning about their concepts, all I can say is that they are truly amazing.  These are definitely companies to watch  (and they all happen to be great guys).  If I had the money, I would be investing at an early stage!

It was a very strong competition and I am glad to have been involved.  It is also a great endorsement for the Entrepreneurship Program here at Lund University, which is only in its second year and is going to get stronger and stronger as it continues to develop.

Congratulations again guys!

About Me

273 is a crowdsourced, ad supported, philanthropic risk capital fund designed to connect people with entrepreneurs in the developing world. The idea is simple: we ask you to join the 273 team and invest as little as $US25 in an entrepreneur from a developing nation through Kiva.org (these loans are paid back in full in 96% of cases). In return, we will strive to bring you inspiring tales of innovation and entrepreneurship, including the stories of our new business partners in the developing world. What’s more we will share 50% of any profits we generate from advertising and affiliate programs on this site proportionately among those who have invested with the 273 team.
