Carpenstreet Inc.
Market Experience Program

The AlchemistX program was packed with lectures, mentoring sessions, and activities that showed the way our business should take first when adventuring into the US market. Carpenstreet was able to talk to the right people for initial networking, and also make concrete decisions regarding funding and finding PMF.

AssetHub
US Commercial Traction Program

I learned a lot from this accelerator program. First, I conducted several user interviews. Then, an Alchemist mentor introduced me to game developers in San Francisco. By doing these user interviews, I defined our user segment and value proposition completely.

Final Aim
US Commercial Traction Program

A lot of discoveries have been made. The problem is the same, but we were able to capture some new elements and new problems that were happening inside customers’ design workflows, development, and landscape overall. We were able to capitalize on this opportunity thanks to this program and through our coach’s advice.

I’ve been almost sleepless because some PoCs with the customer started simultaneously, but it’s all thanks to this program.
