Pegasus Ignite Named Top Startup Program of 2025
Santa Monica, CA - October 21, 2025 - Pegasus Angel Accelerator [https://www.pegasusangelaccelerator.com/?utm_source=pr&utm_medium=google&utm_campaign=ABNews] is proud to announce that its Ignite Startup Academy [https://www.pegasusangelaccelerator.com/ignite?utm_source=pr&utm_medium=google&utm_campaign=ABNews] has been named one of the Top Startup Programs of 2025, just months after its debut.
Launched earlier this year, Ignite was created to uplift the startup ecosystem while solving a challenge Pegasus faced: overwhelming demand for its flagship Accelerate program, which invests $100,000 into early-stage startups. Many applicants showed strong potential but weren't quite investment-ready. Rather than turn them away, Pegasus built Ignite-a 12-week, execution-focused program designed to help founders level up, gain traction, and remain on Pegasus' radar for future funding.
"Ignite is for founders who have the vision but need the frameworks, connections, and momentum to reach the next stage," said Lucas J. Pols, General Partner at Pegasus Angel Accelerator. "We don't just invest in great startups-we help create them."
Founder Success Stories
Early graduates of Ignite are already seeing results.
"I found immense value in the program-especially the sales module. It made me realize I needed to completely rethink my sales approach." - Antonis, CEO & Co-Founder of Givelink
"The program kicks you around in the best way possible. It's rigorous, fantastic, and I enjoy it a lot. The live sessions with Taissa Maleh, Venture Partner at Pegasus, are a highlight for me." - Steve, CEO & Founder of New Day Therapeutics
