Scaling in Europe takes too long. We’re fixing that.
European software companies take five more years than their US peers to hit $100M ARR. Fragmented markets, slower capital, and weaker networks hold us back. Boardwave exists to change that. We connect software founders and CEOs with the people, insights, and support they need to scale faster. You get matched with peers at your stage, access leaders who’ve done it before, and connect to Europe’s top investors and advisors. We’re built differently. Partners fund the platform, so membership is free. No fees. No shareholders. We donate regularly to Cure Parkinson’s. Over £350,000 donated so far. Financial barriers shouldn’t block the right people. Geographic ones shouldn’t hold great companies back. Europe has the talent and ambition. Boardwave removes what’s in the way.
