What they are saying
The WOW factor is real when exited founders share their superpowers.
QUESTION: WHO HAS YOUR BACK AFTER DEMO DAY?
Scaleups succeed or fail based on hitting timely milestones. Many get stuck bridging capital rounds (Series A to C) or burn out before achieving a sizeable exit, IPO, or market leadership. Meanwhile, 97% of VCs claim they are 'value added' investors. Only 31% of Founders agree. Even those backed by elite VCs want more output from stakeholders.

Supernova is a growth stage accelerator run by 150+ exited founders teaming up to significantly improve success rates of Scaleups ($5MM to $100MM+) that go the distance.
