Founder & CEO of Applied Intuition, Former COO & Partner at Y CombinatorCombient exceeded my expectations by leaps and bounds. I wish every company we engaged with had set up something like this -- not only was the process direct and transparent, it was fast. Really impressive.
Natalia Rincon
CEO at CHAOSWhen matching corporates and startups, one of the most time consuming tasks is finding customers’ real needs. Combient Foundry is the first of its kind to connect startups with customers that have a real and concrete needs. If anything, I would recommend startups to forget about accelerators and focus in customer validation, this is something that Combient Foundry excels at. Highly recommended!

Kristian Rode
CCO at SHUTE Sensing Solutions A/SWe found a good match with KONE’s search for new approaches to predictive maintenance. Combient Foundry has been part of the whole process, from making it easy to join and screening propositions, to hosting the meetings and taking part in facilitating the scoping phase. We have a really good impression of Combient Foundry and their work to help new technology companies meet large industrial companies. In other words, it has been a pleasure working with them.
