But even though the wands are of many kinds, they all have one thing in common: working on innovations intended for the international market.
Startups that have done well in recent years after participating in Startup SuperNova include Plaio, Procura, Swapp Agency, Bulby, Keeps, Quick Lookup, FitTales, Deed Delivery and Stubbur.
