Project Summary

Iflexion provided web design and development for a hospitality startup building a business-networking platform, using .NET and MySQL. They led discovery and scoping, prepared functional specifications and design assets (including logos and screenshots), and will provide database work, training, and user testing as the project progresses. The client praised Iflexion's organized planning, thoughtful strategy, and their extra effort to make the project presentable to investors.
