Helping start-/scale-up companies

Companies that have spent significant years on developing the proposition and already achieved results. Now it is the time to catalysing the growth: more accounts, geographical expansion, expand go-to-market strategies and other initiatives to accelerate market penetration. Lack of team capacity or capabilities in combination with tight cash flow, are the main barriers which (potentially) slow down the expansion. ANME can help you.
