300  (Prepare for Glory) - SHR!MP S01E09

24 October 2025

With the year 2024 drawing to an end, Startmate ended its Buildmate pilot, and SHRMP.bio lost its city office again – SHRMPy was back on the street. However, without Buildmate, SHRMP.bio probably wouldn't have existed in 2025. Having this opportunity and the team that came together at least once a week helped us immensely to get through the next stage.

By the time Christmas comes around, SHRMP.bio had developed into a (very loose and globally dispersed) team of three, had a full prototype development plan ready to execute, spent considerable effort on publishing content, gained its first fan from the investment community (who provided valuable feedback and some good ideas), but still had no physical space to work in, no dedicated onsite team. And a whopping $300 left in the bank.

Not the greatest starting point for 2025…
