Bio
Alexander Gunkel
I had the pleasure to mentor Iryna and her co-founder Yuri during their participation at the Yes!Delft Validation Lab. Taking their first steps with their innovative virtual gardening start-up Nurtio I got to know Iryna as a passionate, result-orientated and professional entrepreneur which helped to advance the company with incredible speed. She perfectly managed the complexity of several potential market segments and was able to secure impressive launching customers through diligent and relatable marketing and negotiation. Therefore I'm not surprised that they won the "Rising Star" Yes!Delft award and am sure that they will continue their success story!

Iryna is a great negotiator with strong communications skills. Undeniable entrepreneur who understands market needs and trends, able to generate new ideas and apply best practices. A leader who knows how to manage her team, identify the right people for the roles required in her area of business and motivate them. She may be set as an example of a strong woman, not afraid to think outside the box, be creative, and play a decent part in Ukraine’s world of business, having demonstrated dedication, emotional stability, flexibility and integrity along the way.
