    From Unpolished Diamonds to Data-Driven Acceleration: The Vision of Peter Torstensen.

    What does it take to build an ecosystem where first-time founders can win big? In this episode, we’re going down the rabbit hole with Peter Torstensen, CEO of Danish Accelerace, who pulls back the curtain on 14 years of accelerating over 1,500 startups - and collecting more than 100,000 data points along the way.

    From early conversations with Y Combinator’s Paul Graham to betting on founders with nothing more than a slide deck, Peter shares the systematic, data-informed, and deeply human approach that’s made Accelerace the success that it is today.
