We're happy to announce that Exalia was selected as the winner in ABLE Activator, Bulgaria's premier early-stage startup program.

The program spanned 12 intensive weeks with mentorship from Bulgaria's leading entrepreneurs, investors, and business experts, and has been designed to take all 6 startups from ideas to viable businesses. 

The program concluded with Demo Day, where all 6 teams were invited to present in front of a jury panel consisting of leading investors and entrepreneurs Svetlin Nakov (Co-Founder, Softuni), Pressian Karakostov (Founder, PhoneArena), Ilia Krastev (CEO, A Data Pro), Nadia Zaharieva (Program Director, America for Bulgaria), Plamena Arabadzhiyska (Investment Executive, SiteGround), and Stephan Gantchev (Partner, LaunchHub).

After a thorough discussion, the jury reached the decision to award Exalia the win in the 6th edition of the program, recognizing its viability and potential to disrupt event discovery for companies.

The next steps for Exalia are to continue onboarding B2B clients interested in understanding the most relevant events for them based on their marketing and business goals, and to build an outstanding team in order to achieve exceptional execution of the opportunity ahead. 

This milestone is a small, but important recognition towards Exalia's greater vision of enabling Society 2.0, a united, global, thriving human society where every person lives a fulfilling life, and we extend our gratitude to everyone who contributed to Exalia over the course of the program.
