<p>Web Summit has been amazing. I came last year as an attendee, and this year we came with a stand and we were pitching on the stage, and the difference is massive.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We had so much interest in our stand over the course of the day, and we actually signed up about 50 new companies on our waitlist for the product.</p>

<p>I was honestly blown away by the success that we had at our ALPHA stand this year. [An] incredibly high quality of people coming up as potential customers; partners; investors, all really excited to find out more about our solution.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It’s been a huge success at Web Summit this year.</p>

<p>I came to Web Summit because I think it’s just an incredible opportunity; it’s the premier tech conference in the world. The opportunity for a startup like ours to have a platform here is just incredible.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The exposure that we can get for our brand, potential customers, future investors and to meet other people in the startup ecosystem has been amazing.</p>
