f3fundit is all about providing startups and entrepreneurs with best practice, advice, and the most relevant information on how to make their business ideas into successfully funded companies.
Launched as a blog in December of 2009, f3fundit.com sought to provide articles on entrepreneurship best practices and to aggregate available European resources in order to help entrepreneurs. Since our launch, we’ve seen a steady growth, and have thus decided to revamp the portal into something new.
In the coming months, f3fundit plans to evolve from a blog into a fully functional business portal, where entrepreneurs, startups, financiers and services will be able to input details, share best practices, create profiles, solicit services, invest and identify sources of capital, our goal is to help you the entrepreneurs ready yourselves for talks with financiers, and to help facilitate deal flow.

“As founder of CEO-CF, the Pan-European collaborative forum for experienced Chief Executives Officers that are leading, and exiting growth companies, we see the potential with f3fundit and Next Top Startup to add value to exciting new ventures in the best way possible. This is learning from our mistakes, benefitting from our networks, and identifying with our successes, something that will undoubtedly lead to forging new alliances that will enable greater implementation of technologies and ideas.” - Dave Darsch, founder of CEO Collaborative Forum.
“Muchas nuevas iniciativas de emprendedores identifican grandes oportunidades que no llegan al mercado por la falta de un buen Plan de negocio. Como Director de ESADE BAN, creo que un portal online que ofrezca un intercambio entre los emprendedores y los expertos tiene mucho valor, sobre todo para la preparación de la presentación de un proyecto empresarial ante un foro de inversores privados. Por eso apoyo la iniciativa de Next Top Startup porque ofrece un gran incentivo para el desarrollo de nuevos proyectos” - Fernando Zallo, Director ESADE BAN.
“Any change which creates new value is innovation, but making those new ideas into leading growth companies requires a lot of input that entrepreneurs alone are not able to gather which is why I am excited about giving my time to the creation of a community focused on early stage ventures combined with the incentive of the Next Top Startup competition” – Mario Raich, co-author of Beyond, and creator of Smart Solutions, Learnita.
“As an entrepreneur myself, I know very well the difficulties involved with starting a new venture. What the team at f3fundit has done with Next Top Startup is create an event that is truly focused on the entrepreneur, one that is first and foremost aimed at helping them succeed.” – David Masó Co-founder Qporama and Futurlink
