Green Running Ltd

“Without SETsquared and their continuous encouragement, support and services I would have been on the wrong side of the ‘80% of startups fail within the first 3 years’ statistic! They help remove the pitfalls that most companies fall into and provide you with the real life experience far greater than the average MBA.”
