The Women Behind the Startups
In 2024, we worked with a group of outstanding women-led startups—each bringing a strong vision, a scalable business model, and a clear understanding of the market they serve. Their work reflects the ambition and focus at the core of DEA’s mission.
The Mentors Who Made It Work
DEA 2024 brought together an outstanding group of mentors whose expertise was key to transforming early-stage ideas into structured, investor-ready businesses. Covering every critical area—from product and market strategy to finance, legal, and fundraising—they provided the practical foundation every startup needs to operate, grow, and thrive. Their insight and commitment shaped not just companies, but confident founders ready to lead.
What a Journey - And This Was Just the Beginning
The DEA 2024 program was an unforgettable experience—from the energy of our weekly sessions to the invaluable mentorship and hands-on growth founders achieved together. Over 10 weeks, our cohort built, refined, and pitched with focus and ambition.
The final Pitch & Demo Day was a true highlight. Founders took the stage in front of a live audience of investors, partners, and ecosystem leaders to present their startups with confidence and clarity. It was a celebration of bold ideas, progress, and potential.
If you believe this kind of experience could transform your founder journey, we’d love to hear from you. [Apply here] to join the next DEA cohort.
