When WilderTrips applied for Ignite's Pre-Accelerator back in December 2023, I promised myself I'd share our pitch deck if we were successful in the hope that it may help others. Since this pitch, things have changed a little: 👉 We've grown from 500 to 1188 users 👉 We've grown from 30 to 103 paying customers 👉 Our application was successful! We're now Ignite's prestigious Pre-Accelerator along with 14 other startups based in the North East. But one thing hasn't changed... 👉 We always want to improve! ❓ So let me ask, how would you improve our pitch deck?

Friday inspiration for Nasdaq's Black Business Month! It's important for people of color in Sweden to know that major financial players like Nasdaq, BlackRock, and Goldman Sachs have shown a growing interest in investing in Black-owned businesses. This is significant news that often doesn't make it into Swedish media, but it's crucial for understanding the broader trends in global finance and supporting diverse entrepreneurship.

Here are my top 3 takeaways from today's panel on "From Concept to Market: The Hardtech Journey": - The idea of building a hardtech startup alone is a myth. - Validate the product market fit at every step of your hardtech journey. - Build a solid roadmap because hardtech is not simple. Thanks to my fellow panelists Artmiz Golkaramnay, Diana Horqque Ratto and Suzie Dufour for a great discussion and a big shout out to Startupfest and Garage&co for hosting this first #HardtechFest! Looking forward to tomorrow - come and see me if you want to dive deeper into these topics. BXVentures #hardtech #venturestudio #climatetech.
