Secret of Success – Andrej Glézl (Datamolino)

February

2015

I started Datamolino because I wanted small businesses to have the same access to technology as large ones. Datamolino is a platform for accountants, that processes invoices and receipts sent in any format and exports the extracted data into any accounting software thereby saving time and money. The growth potential for our platform is huge with some 16 billion ‘unstructured’ invoices in Europe alone. We benefited hugely from being part of Telefonica’s Wayra acceleration programme that helped us get to market quickly and gave us access to a large customer base.

That ecosystem of entrepreneurs, a skilled workforce and investors are essential to the growth of the economy and government needs to ensure that all the conditions are in place for such ecosystems to thrive.

“Entrepreneurs are important to society because we drive innovation, creating products that add value through material benefits, savings or unique experiences.”

Hero(es): Nelson Mandela

Start up capital: Investors and acceleration programme (Wayra)
