Finnfactstour: RunToShop – the hardrockin’ kidbrother
RunToShop seemed to be the hardrockin’ kidbrother of the finnfacts tour. The guys we met there would just as much talk about snowboarding and party venues in Tampere as their startup – which is really something I believe in, because it showed a LOT of identity in the company and a lot of passion between the people working there…
The only thing that I felt kind of sad about was that their startup isn’t in english beta yet (only finnish so far) so it was really hard for us to see how the actual service worked, however the things they told us about it sounded great.
So these guys are building a startup based on positive recommendations of products that your social network are giving on runtoshop.com. Their mission is to extend the online shopping experience to the places where people allready are (aka. facebook, twitter etc.) – I love the idea but I didn’t feel that I got enough information from the guys to see if it works in real life.
However, the idea is great and genuine and so far it seems like it has momentum in Finland – So I am REALLY looking forward to the english launch (I will let you know when that happens =)
