Now entering its tenth year, CDL has supported program participants in creating $15 billion in equity value and nurtured several unicorns.

When Creative Destruction Lab launched in September 2012, there was only a single cohort of 25 promising science-based startups. Seven entrepreneurs, the G7, agreed to lend their time and expertise to help the first-time founders transform their science projects into scalable, financeable businesses.

In less than a decade, CDL has supported program participants in creating $15 billion in equity value and brought together more than 15,000 founders with nearly 1,200 mentors across 16 streams in 10 locations, including five sites across Canada, two in Europe (CDL-Oxford, and CDL-Paris), and three in the US (CDL-Atlanta, CDL-Wisconsin, CDL-Seattle).
