Business Catapult

We are delighted to announce the launch of the 4th Global Business Catapult for P&G Alums. 

This initiative is a virtual accelerator for P&G Alumni-led startups and scale-ups that offer a product or a service with a proven business model that is already generating sales..  We believe in the power of connection and the purpose of this initiative is to accelerate the enterprises of P&G Alumni founders by connecting them to potential advisors and investors, while elevating their global visibility.

Selected finalists will present at a Global Virtual Pitch with top global leaders from VC Funds and Global Accelerators (during February 2025). Don’t miss this opportunity to have global reach.

There will be 3 winners who will get free accelerator-like support for a year from a diverse P&G Alumni team of investors and seasoned start-up leaders. This includes mentoring, as well as investor and business development connections. Winners will also present their businesses to the global audience at the P&G Alumni Global Conference on June 12-14, 2025, in Berlin, one of the capitals of innovation and business growth.  And the overall winner will be recognized as the P&G Alumni Star Entrepreneur of 2025.  You could be the one!  Apply before January 31st, 2025.
