PEGO

PEGO SMA GmbH is a verifiable, established German manufacturing company (founded 1968) with significant real-world utility in the mechanical engineering sector. External verification confirms ~50 employees and estimated revenue up to €10M, indicating strong longevity and traction significantly higher than the submission suggests. However, the project submission itself was of extremely low quality, containing vague claims ('everyone', 'most people') and lacking detail. The final score reflects the solidity of the underlying business, heavily penalized by the poor response quality and lack of technical novelty typical of a traditional SME compared to a high-growth tech venture.
