“The Start&Pulse competition was a great opportunity for Solvemate to get to know Creditplus and ultimately kick-started our relationship. I am happy that we have taken part and can recommend it to any other startup!”

Erik Pfannmöller - Co-founder and CEO

"Participating in the S&P event was a great and lasting door opener for us in the banking sector. We gained so much media presence through our participation and third place that we subsequently entered discussions with several banks. Just recently, we were able to win another new customer because of this event. We would definitely participate again in this very well organized and professional event."
