Ignite Bermuda officially welcomed Cohort 11 with a two-day Bootcamp held on Wednesday, July 1 and Thursday, July 2 in the Discovery Room at the Rosebank Centre. The event provided entrepreneurs with a strong foundation as they embarked on their Ignite journey.
Participants took part in interactive sessions covering Mindset, Customer Discovery, Value Proposition, and Pitching, gaining practical tools to refine their business ideas, better understand their customers, and prepare for the months ahead.
Congratulations to our Bootcamp Pitch Competition finalists, Jasmine DeBraga and Camille Creary, whose presentations demonstrated creativity and a clear understanding of their business concepts.
We extend our sincere thanks to our volunteer expert panel, Giles Belfrage, Jen Ward, and Brittany Outerbridge, for joining us to outline the complimentary support they're each offering this cohort. Their generosity gives participants direct access to practical expertise as they strengthen key business skills and build confidence at the start of the programme.
We are also grateful to our guest pitch judges Bradley Molitor (Athene), Eric Ratnayake (Athene), Sidley Carswell Sanna (Prudential), Sophie Campeau (Cripps Foundation), and Charmaine Tucker (Lombard Odier) for providing thoughtful feedback and encouragement that challenged participants to refine their ideas and presentations.
The Fuel Your Ambition Series officially launched on Wednesday, July 8, extending Ignite's support to early-stage entrepreneurs through a virtual programme focused on building confidence, strengthening business fundamentals, and preparing participants for future growth.
As Cohort 11 begins its journey, we look forward to seeing these entrepreneurs connect, collaborate, and learn from one another over the coming months. We are excited to support them as they refine their ideas, overcome challenges, and build businesses that contribute to Bermuda's entrepreneurial ecosystem.
