โ€œ๐——๐—ผ ๐—˜๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐—ฐ ๐—ฆ๐—ต*๐˜โ€. This has been our mantra over the past 5 years.

Since the launch of Intel Ignite, we have engaged with thousands of early-stage deep tech startups, screened more than 4,500 startups, accelerated 216 startups, and our portfolio has raised more than $3.5 billion in follow-on funding and acquisitions.

We wanted to take a moment to thank everyone that has been a part of this journey.

Drawing from his experience helping build over 1,000 startups, in the video below Tzahi emphasizes the importance of breaking the stigma around mental health and founders investing in their well-being.

Here are his tips for navigating the startup journey with resilience:

๐Ÿซ‚ ๐—œ๐—ป๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—น๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ฝ๐˜€: Your significant other often serves as your core support system โ€“ nurture this relationship to strengthen your foundation.

๐Ÿซถ ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐˜๐—ถ๐˜‡๐—ฒ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—น๐˜๐—ต: Seek professional help if needed. Amazing therapists can make the journey easier.

โ€œThe startup journey is a fun oneโ€”but itโ€™s not an easy one. Letโ€™s support ourselves and others to break the stigma around founder mental health.โ€

The journey for female founders, and even more so for female founders in deep tech, has its challenges. When we created the She Leads Deep Tech video series, we wanted to shed light on the incredible women in deep tech who took part in our deep tech accelerator program.

They shared their stories of the road to entrepreneurship and their unique perspectives. We applaud all female founders, and particularly the amazing deep tech founders who have shared their stories with us.

โ€œDrawing on the hard-won lessons from my 12-year journey as an entrepreneur, Iโ€™m honoured to be a part of the team distilling my experiences to participants in our 12-week accelerator programme.โ€

In a new Startups Magazine article, Ofer Shayo, Managing Director of Intel Ignite London, shares his journey as a and how the ups and downs he experienced along the way gave him the tools to put Intel Igniteโ€™s co-founder-as-a-service model into action.

Oferโ€™s experience as a founder included:
๐Ÿ“ˆ Building a highly successful company
โญ Finding product-market-fit, despite being early and ahead of the market
๐Ÿค Facing the difficult decision to part ways with one of his co-founders

In the Intel Ignite program, these wins and hardships taught Ofer valuable lessons that he has been able to use to mentor and guide founders during their own entrepreneurial journeys, and empathize with them through the various stages of building a business.

Read his full journey in the article, including why connections are so important as a founder and why entrepreneurs must embrace expecting the unexpected. https://intel.ly/41ht7oT

โ€œThe future is looking bright for TitanML.โ€ We certainly agree!

Meryem Arik, co-founder and CEO of TitanML, Intel Ignite Europe batch 4 alumni, is featured in Startups Magazine. In the article she shares insights on the startupโ€™s journey and innovations in deploying large language models (LLMs).

She talks about her experience with Intel Ignite, describing TitanML's journey with the accelerator program as transformative, highlighting the access to deep tech expertise and valuable feedback on their R&D approach.

โ€œOut of all of them, Intel Ignite has been a really fantastic experience. Partly because of how hands on they are, and because they're backed by Intel, you have this almost unlimited depth of resource that you can bet you can pull up on, and itโ€™s also deeptech focused.โ€

TitanML focuses on empowering companies to securely deploy generative AI within their own cloud environments.
