The challenge
After receiving their Seed Capital, CHOOOSE was at a big turning point. They needed to grow and find the right people fast, people who could keep up with big changes. They did a lot of research to find the best partner for this. They looked at many companies but chose us because we stood out as a team augmentation partner. We had just what they needed to find great talent and grow quickly.
“Our partnership with Startup House has allowed us to build a great product team with talented people. I'd recommend them to anyone who wishes to access experienced development team.”
Gaute Gamst
CEO & Founder @CHOOOSE
