John Njoku and his two co-founders, Chris Connell and Greg Phillips, moved to Chile after finishing a three-month accelerator program in Philadelphia. For him, Start-Up Chile was more of an incubator than an accelerator, because the team could take their time to refine their product.
Kwelia sells software that provides data about apartment rental prices for urban property managers. The team took the six months to enhance the software and is now back in the U.S. ready to sell the product to clients.
Njoku was eager to spend some time abroad, especially since Start-Up Chile streamlined the documentation process. The program set him up with a Chilean ID card and a personal bank account within two weeks.
