Go-To-Market Strategy

In order to better hone our target demographic, we are currently undergoing our second round of go-to-market interviews. If you or anyone you know has a mold story to share, we’d love to hear it. If interested, please reach out at [email protected].

Additionally, we are conducting user research to gauge interest and gather information that will inform our product development. Your insights and feedback will play a pivotal role in refining Spore. We'd greatly appreciate it if you filled out our short User Research Survey below. Thank you!
