Success Stories

“Camplify started as an idea and we knew we had to find the right people to work with. Slingshot for us was critical because they connected us with the right people from day one. Partnering with a corporate is one way to make sure that you have a success right off the bat. Without Slingshot there would be no Camplify”

“Curo have known the Slingshot team for quite some time. When they reached out to us, it made perfect sense to return and be part of the first accelerator program. HCF’s commitment to Curo has been significant with regards to investment and time with their leadership team. It has helped to shape Curo today and a great example of how corporates should work with Startups. We could not happier with the outcome.”

“Going through the Slingshot Accelerator program helped us really refine our business model, test our assumptions and develop some core skills that have helped us successfully raise follow on funding.
The real benefit was having access to word class mentors, VC’s, successful startup founders and contacts in so many different areas. Being placed together with some of the most passionate fellow entrepreneurs I have seen was great for us to feed off the energy. The environment where we could really test our concepts and ideas and receive constructive feedback from the Slingshot team was a real benefit.
I recommend the program for any startup and challenge anybody who thinks they won’t come away a better entrepreneur from being a part of it.”

“I think that apart from the excellent mentorship and training, HCF Catalyst really ignited a fire to rocket towards our goals, sometimes completely out of our comfort zones. It helped us expand our idea to be a bigger, a more scalable monster of a business, and that has made all the difference. The ongoing support of our company is so valuable to us.”
