Q Tell me about that first customer. How'd you find them?
A So actually, I was in San Francisco when I founded, and it was like a pretty serendipitous, I have to say, because before coming to San Francisco on an acceleration program launched by Digital Health, I was hanging around in a social, uh, social impact co-working space in Madrid, Spain. And, uh, I've seen at some point a training course of an NGO that was called Save the Children that you might know is, uh, the largest NGO that had children across the world. And, uh, I just got in and I asked, uh, to the trainer, uh, what they were doing there and I told them a little bit about what I'm doing. They could connect me with, uh, their training and HR guy. Nothing happened. And about, uh, Five months later, when I was, uh, in, uh, in SF, I got the HR guy reaching out to me, telling me, Hey, you know, like, it just found out what you're doing. Actually, we are looking for a mental health, uh, service, and, uh, we were about to close the, uh, the service, the selection, and then we just hear about you from one of our employees. Can you, do you want to get on a call? So we got on the call. Things went really fast, and we start a pilot of six months with another organization that was competing with us. And they were much more established and much more well known. And eventually after six months, we got selected and we got our first paying client.
