“I took part in the CyberASAP program, supporting the Citydefend team as the Tech transfer manager of the City, University of London. Our overall experience was very satisfactory and the continuous support from Robin and Emma was commendable. It was a steep learning curve for the team to take the idea through the value proposition, market validation and finally MVP development. The program has enriched all our experiences with entrepreneurship.”
