    About Fierce

    We do not talk about the gap. We close it.

    The Missing Layer

    The usual narratives around women founders in tech include pipeline issues, lack of ambition, lower performance. The data tells a different story. Women founders in tech outperform. They deliver stronger returns per dollar invested. They exit faster. This is not a pipeline problem. It is not a performance problem. It is an access problem, and access is infrastructure.  Fierce exists to build the right infrastructure around exceptional founders.

    The Fierce Growth Model 

    Prepare the founder Connect her to the right network Unlock growth

    We prepare founders before they enter the room.

    Investor Q&A coaching, go-to-market strategy, network positioning. The work happens before the introduction – so when founders meet investors through Fierce, the conversation starts at a different level.

    We take founders international.

    Not as a group trip. As a curated programme with one purpose. LindaAI closed a €2.6M round within two weeks of the London Sprint. EstateMin converted a sprint connection into her first American customer.

    We engage the whole ecosystem – not just founders.

    100+ global investors across Ireland, the UK, Europe, and the US are active in the Fierce network. We bring investors, operators, and partners into the same room and make sure the conditions are right for something real to happen.

    We led on access when no one else did.

    Fierce was the first organisation in Ireland to provide free childcare at founder events. Not as a gesture. Because a programme that believes in access has to mean it.
