Testimonials
Founded in 2021 by Alex Borg, GBU Ventures is a boutique consultancy built on 35 years of expertise in digital technology, GovTech, open innovation challenges, and the startup ecosystem. This is what startup founders had to say about their experience.
“Going through the startup accelerator program with Alex and his team was an invaluable experience for me and my co-founder. Alex's guidance and support were instrumental in keeping us on track and ensuring that we reached our milestones, which might have otherwise slipped as other priorities get in the way. His commitment to our success and his expertise in the startup ecosystem helped us navigate challenges and stay focused on our goals.

“Alex and his team played a pivotal role in helping Wirestock take its first crucial steps as a company. As one of the earliest believers in our vision, Alex provided tremendous support that was very important for us as early-stage founders. We also gained great insights and direction from his team's guidance, which made a lasting impact on our growth.”

“I worked with Alex to create my business plan, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. Alex is exceptionally good at his job—he took the time and showed genuine interest in fully understanding my business and its goals. He went above and beyond by conducting thorough research to find articles and data that supported the hypotheses we were working on. His commitment to go the extra mile was truly appreciated, and it made a real difference in the quality of the final plan. I highly recommend GBU Ventures to anyone looking for expert, thoughtful, and dedicated guidance.”
Manolis Chountasis, CEO, Cheap Trolley
“I had the privilege of being hosted by Alex Borg at the MITA accelerator. From the start, Alex proved to be a consummate professional—serious, honest, loyal, and highly skilled, particularly in navigating the complexities of the startup sector. He expertly guides businesses through challenges with limited resources in minimal time.
What truly stood out was Alex's humanity. Despite his extensive experience, he remains kind, accessible, and supportive, showing a rare capacity for empathy in such a competitive environment. I am now happy to have Alex again as an advisor for my pilot project in Malta.”
