Helping new ideas flourish
Zoom on GEFCO’s partnership with Techstars
GEFCO is focused on generating new ideas and accelerating innovation to bring major evolutions in the logistics and transport industry. In March 2018, GEFCO signed a partnership with Techstars, a worldwide network that helps entrepreneurs succeed, with experience in over 1,000 international start-ups. This collaboration represents a unique opportunity for GEFCO to leverage the expertise of the Techstars team in the field of entrepreneurship and innovation, and use its industry know-how to enrich the program.
We are very pleased to partner with Techstars, an accelerator with an exceptional track record in supporting growing start-ups. Thanks to our agreement, GEFCO will have a unique opportunity to connect with dedicated entrepreneurs around the world to explore and invest in the supply chain of the future. We look forward to sharing GEFCO’s expertise and tapping into Techstars’ entrepreneurial ideas and creativeness.
