Wildya offered eight focused weeks to pressure-test my pitch alongside a group of committed founders working across nature and impact. The structure, the content, the deadlines and the honest feedback from Oliver, Michelle and the cohort sharpened how I describe what I'm working on, and led to my first live pitch to an external audience. I particularly valued the openness, passion and authenticity that Oliver and Michelle brought to the whole experience. Inspired by it, I initiated a fundraising campaign within my own network, securing two scholarships so aspiring entrepreneurs who otherwise couldn't afford to take part could join. A wonderful space to think, build and be challenged. Go, Wildya!

I was very curious about the Bootcamp for young entrepreneurs and decided to do it ! .. I learnt a lot about entrepreneurship and got the chance to meet fantastic people with the same challenges and same motivation to succeed !. I added a few hours in 1to1 with Michelle to help me on my own difficulties. A few months after the bootcamp, my company was created and CAOYA chocolate was born ! @Michelle and Oli : thanks again

Thank you Oliver Dauert and Michelle Egly for this incredible opportunity. Work like this is not just growing the project; it's more growing the individu and thank you for giving me this possibility to just "grow". Yet, my project is challenging and probably will need some refinement. But I was always thinking, why ex-situ conservation cannot be done by broader community? Why are we talking about biocultural heritage conservation without really sharing it? and this is where I want to act.

Wildya The Wildya bootcamp has been a huge push in putting this together, thank you for your support and all the many insights and advice you've shared along the way!

very satisfied with the progress made so far thanks to your permanent help and outstanding guidance throughout the process (by the way we are already half way !!,wish it could last longer) .. 👏

Michelle Egly & Oliver Dauert, this bootcamp is precious! Really helps me boost my nature project and get to next level! I was telling my sister how nice it is to not have to think "what do I do next..." just follow the Ecopreneur OS tasks! The bootcamp is rich and very well structured, which makes me work efficiently on my project, and having the possibility to bounce back ideas with you 2 and the other participants makes it is worth every penny I invested! Thank you! …more

Oliver Dauert and Michelle Egly, I am so glad that I have found your ecopreneur bootcamp here on LinkedIn and that I can be part of the first group.

I am looking forward to the pitch event. 😀
