🎉 What an incredible journey! Last Friday marked the end of our Autumn 2024 #TechForGood programme, and we couldn't be more proud of our remarkable cohort of founders. Over the past six weeks, we've witnessed these brilliant #startups transform their businesses, bringing purpose & profit together, with each and everyone of them demonstrating unparalleled dedication and resilience. To our mentors, industry partners, and guest speakers, especially founders coming through for the 'founder confidentials' – thank you for generously sharing your expertise and connections. Your guidance has been invaluable in shaping these companies' trajectories. To our graduating founders: This isn't goodbye – as BGV's very own Paul said it's just the beginning. We can't wait to see you continue to transform industries and create lasting impact. Congratulations, Class of Autumn 2024! 🚀
