Being accepted into such an accelerator program was also a way to provide validation and credibility to Koolboks and help build trust with our investors and partners, which is critical for success in the energy sector.”

Although there are many innovation programs to choose from, Startup the Future by Galp stood out by giving us the opportunity to work with the leader in public EV charging in Iberia. As a bonus we also attended Web Summit and presented our data science platform for charge point operators at Galp's booth, along with tailored sessions with external consultants.”

We are really excited to launch a pilot project in partnership with GALP, Girls Move, Solar Works and Makobo, to help to support communities with no or limited access to electricity and in needs of fridges to operate in Mozambique. We hope to kick off in June!”

The most valuable outcome of Startup the Future was establishing our presence in a region we did not cover before. Meeting other participating startups, receiving trainings, and getting the attention of media through Galp's channels was priceless as well”
