Stryde has come a long way to winning the IAPS award at the HYPE SPIN x IAPS accelerator programme. From our pitch deck to our business model to our potential partners, the programme has helped us improve almost every part of the business. It has also given us more understanding of the industry by introducing us to the right people, allowing us to make a small but vital pivot from B2C to B2B2C. We look forward to joining the alumni network and seeing new startups joining the programme!

Never been in an accelerator very focused in the sports industry, with huge devotion and passion, in which all cohort could not only share startup entrepreneurship knowledge but also be able to seek cooperation skills and business in between. Feels like being a part of a family where each member feels you, understands you and devoted to helping you stand up on your foot. If time could rewind, we would join as many times as we could.- Ryo Lee, CEO of Pickups
