What a journey it has been!
Today, we celebrate the stellar companies that have completed our 2024 Catalyst Curriculum. These teams have shown incredible energy, focus, and vision in every session since we kicked off the Curriculum in August.
As part of Catalyst, Stage 2 Capital’s GTM accelerator, our founders received $200K in funding in addition to direct coaching from the Stage 2 team on Stage 2’s Science of Scaling method for building repeatable growth, plus hands-on, 1:1 mentoring from our network of elite GTM Limited Partners.
“The Catalyst program was a game-changer for our business. It gave us the foundational knowledge to think through our GTM motion in a methodical way. I believe all founders, regardless of stage, can benefit from the insights and connections shared in the program!” Julia Tolmachyov, Co-Founder & CEO at DayZero.
Throughout the Catalyst Curriculum, founders tackled complex challenges, iterated their go-to-market strategy, and achieved remarkable milestones, from revenue targets to fundraising goals to hiring of key teammates, among many others. This year’s group of founders represents a range of industries from retail to logistics to construction to GenAI to Environmental Engineering across B2B software.
“Stage 2 Catalyst was rocket fuel for our company! Their unique process turbocharged our growth – blending energizing workshops, strategic networking, and a focused approach to reinforce learning. In just weeks, we transformed our GTM strategy, connecting with peers and gaining insights that would have taken months to develop.” Katy Aucoin, Co-founder & CEO at Curated For You.
