- Thank you to the WHOLE team of Sound Hub for those incredible weeks of mentorship, brainstorming, challenging questions and definitely putting us out of our comfort zone for the best. We're all looking forward to come back for an alumni event. On behalf of the 7 legends of sound and audio (= the 7 startups of the 2023 cohort)
Marie Verchere, CEO & Co-Founder - It made a big difference for SOWA when we participated in the accelerator a few years ago. Great sparring on both product and business development. Hope a lot of startups will apply, and use this opportunity to network with the brightest minds in the field of audio in Denmark.
Villads Sørensen, CEO & Co-Founder - We are super happy to be participating! Camp 1 really helped reveal our top priorities and we are busy, busy, busy working on those to be ready for Camp 2! 🤓 Luis Arias, CTO & Co-Founder
- The importance of creating strong companies focusing on sound is huge for all people. As a musician and entrepreneur, I see not only the SoundTech Accelerator as the key to more successful businesses but also in terms of better lives with a higher quality of life.
Kristian Riis, Founder - The help of Sound Hub has made a big difference in bringing my innovation toward a real-world, useful, and usable product. An eye-opening luxury to be offered highly interesting presentations by fine professionals on a vast array of topics, which I didn't even know had such importance for a budding start-up. In-depth discussions of challenges and solutions and being surrounded by experienced people in electronics, acoustics, programming, design, and manufacturing make the program come together in a very productive way. 10/10.
Lars Graugaard, Founder of CLANG - Back in 2019, through a Sound-Tech accelerator program in Denmark, AVAtronics became one of the first international startups which founded its subsidiary at Sound Hub Denmark; and since then, Sound Hub Denmark has been one of its major supporters by helping us to hire highly talented and experienced engineers, and also by providing access to its facilities and state-of-the-art equipment. We absolutely recommend joining Sound Hub as a great way to expand your Soundtech business and grow faster.
Amir Farahani, Co-Founder & CTO - If you are in an audio tech startup, this is a unique opportunity!
Pauli Minnaar, Founder - We had a great experience working with local talent from Struer. Recording in the professional studio at Sound Hub Denmark was simply perfect! Looking forward to our next sessions when we will record the last of the 4 characters: Lilly, our little ear-training elf.
Maia Wiest, CEO & Creative Director - In a post on LinkedIn we got in contact with Sound Hub and suddenly found ourselves on our way to Struer. At Sound Hub they were really helpful, they spent most of the day together with us, gave us great input about sound, dB, testing and some do's and don'ts for our prototype. Even after our visit they were also helpful with advice if we got stuck.
Christoffer Rinder Larsen, BioMedical Design Fellow and MSc in clinical science and technology - I like to be in this environment, where all work with Sound & Audio. So, the people appreciate what you do, understand your struggles and they give good feedback, that can help you grow and go further with product development
Enoc Armengol, Co-Founder & CEO - It is nice to have documentation of exactly how much sound attenuation the furniture provides.
Anne Mygind, Founder - As designers, we benefitted greatly from the tailored support and the available knowledge sharing at Sound Hub. We, for example, had little knowledge about electronics or audio engineering. The support we received from Sound Hub's in-house specialists enabled us to develop our product to be market-ready.
Dirk Klijn, Co-Founder - Our collaboration with Sound Hub Denmark has been, and continues to be, a huge advantage for our company. Both the location and the people here, have helped improve our app and get it matured for the market. Maia Wiest, CEO & Creative Director
- Sound Hub Denmark is a great community for audio-based start-ups and small businesses. Their generous support is incredible. Within days, they were making invaluable introductions across the industry as well as setting up an event for us to showcase our technology to other Sound Hub members and partners. Their enthusiasm for all Sound Hub businesses radiates and their extensive industry knowledge and professional networks made joining the community the easiest decision we've made all year.
Garry Haywood, CEO - Our collaboration brings us invaluable information to meet the highest quality levels of the Heartmotion technology which our corporate partners expect.
Max van den Berg, CCO - In one of the first sentences of our website we say: developed with the support of Sound Hub DK :-). Thank you very much for helping us to improve our product.
Pablo Ocqueteau, Co-Founder - It's been quite a ride for Muuselabs to get our new Jooki ready (2nd generation). We thank Sound Hub for their help during 2020 (and before). The people there are awesome. Highly recommended!
Pieter Palmer, CCO & Hardware Lead - Sound Hub has been of great support to us during the development of our products. It is invaluable to have so many sound experts, suppliers, and partners in one place. In a timely manner they helped us to put in place a competent team, and engage us with a pool of experts and suppliers on the technical and commercial/marketing side of the sound supply chain. This allowed us to gain both time and quality; two major aggregates in an entrepreneur’s life.
Noah Conte, CEO & Co-Founder - We have recently benefitted from the 1:1 corporate matchmaking offered by Sound Hub Denmark. It’s very nice to feel thoroughly understood and to enjoy their assistance in making the RIGHT introductions for us towards relevant corporates and collaboration partners. Can only recommend other startups to reach out to Sound Hub for assistance!

Loic Boisnard, Founder - The people at Sound Hub Denmark have really gone out of their way, to provide opportunities, for helping IDUN audio on its startup journey. Pauli Minnaar, Founder
