Our startups are our best ambassadors

Every startup hopes to find a customer. Through SynerLeap, we found something much more valuable: a trusted partner that helps us navigate a global enterprise, build credibility, and create opportunities that continue to drive growth.
- Gabe Batstone, CEO
SynerLeap opened the door to ABB for us, and that access has been transformational. A single collaboration has grown into engagement across multiple divisions, backed by people who really believe in what we're doing, exactly the kind of support a deep-tech startup needs to scale.
- James Cannings, CEO
ABB as a large organization might seem a bit scary to approach. But what we've found is that they've been an incredible partner - very approachable and very willing to work with us to build a relationship.
- Mischa Schirris, Head of Partnerships
SynerLeap is different. They become a trusted partner with a unique ability to bridge the startup and ABB worlds. They take the time to understand where we can create the most value, connect us with the right teams, and support us in turning those opportunities into real collaboration. For a startup, having that level of understanding, access and genuine commitment to your success is incredibly valuable.
- Anthony McLoughlin, CEO and founder
