Our one-line pitch is…
sli.do is a web application for speakers and event organisers to engage their audience with real-time questions, comments and polls.
Introduce your team, and tell us one interesting thing about each member. We are…
Peter Komornik, an ex-Google employee, is the CEO.
Frantisek Krivda is our superstar designer who tries to make sure we always look our best.
Peter Slivka, Kamil Maraz and Jakub Sevcech are developing our app in Python, NodeJS and Angular and have over 20 years of combined development experience.
Peter Krajnak is in charge of building our distribution network.
Andrej Kristufek makes sure our customers always stay happy.
The team in their office Photo credit: sli.doWe received our initial capital through…
We were self-funded for almost a yearbefore we received an angel investment in Spring 2013. Right now, we’re looking for a VC investment.
The real pain about starting a business in Slovakia is…
Slovakia is a country of contrasts. On the one hand, there are many smart, modest and hard-working people here. On the other, they are often afraid to dream big and take risks, which makes attracting talent challenging. Additionally, the startup ecosystem is still very young and the government, instead of supporting innovative companies, is often making things more difficult.
The person that inspires us is…
Adam Somlai-Fischer from Prezi, who has been a huge source of inspiration for us in many ways. Prezi’s story is the perfect example that great product and success can also be achieved from Central Europe.
The one app/service that we couldn’t live without is…
There are several apps we fell in love with. We can’t imagine living without Trello to manage our workflow. Recently, we started using Pipedrive to manage all our crucial contacts.
The one thing we would save from our burning office is…
The priceless old painting by Frantisek’s great grandfather (that’s what he claims…)
The worst piece of advice we ever got was…
To quit. Obviously, we didn’t take it 😉
The one thing that will make us quit is…
We would really want to know the answer to this one, too.
Our inside joke is…
You are the second best speaker in our team!
After whom?
After anyone…
You might not believe it, but we…
Almost did quit at the end of 2012. For a second it seemed like a distant possibility.
We’ll call ourselves successful when…
sli.do becomes the standard for audience interaction at events around the globe.
The startup we really want to see on inventures’ Startup Pick is…
Trashout – making the World a cleaner place.
