catalyst noir is a global initiative founded in Ireland, designed to support and empower aspiring Black or underrepresented women tech founders worldwide. 

This program aims to bridge the gap in entrepreneurship by providing participants with the resources, mentorship, and networking opportunities needed to turn their innovative ideas into successful tech ventures. Through a structured capacity-building approach, the initiative fosters a collaborative environment where women can refine their business ideas, gain industry insights, and develop solutions that leverage technology for impactful change.

The first edition of the StartUp Bootcamp programme took place in February 2025, bringing together ambitious women from Africa, Europe, and the USA.
