David Henderson, MD at DHD said: “We are very excited to be working with Mike and the team at Wonka Lab.

The fact that these guys wanted to assist start-ups and provide solutions that have a positive impact on the world around them struck a real chord with us and was something we wanted to get involved with immediately.
