Digital Den x Nashville Entrepreneur Center: A Recap of the Digital Den Venture Studio Showcase Event

Last night marked a monumental milestone for Digital Den as we successfully hosted the Digital Den Venture Studio Showcase Event in collaboration with the Nashville Entrepreneur Center. This virtual gathering brought together over 70 participants, including investors, industry leaders, and innovators from the U.S., Montenegro, and the broader region. It was a groundbreaking moment for Balkan startups as they pitched their innovative ideas to an esteemed American audience.

Five outstanding startups from our portfolio—Flourish, FilamenTech, Inc., Neo Pill, ViewECG, and WellNuo LLC—presented their cutting-edge solutions. Their pitches captivated the investor panel, which included representatives from prominent U.S. firms such as Claritas Capital, Frist Cressey Ventures, and FCA Venture Partners.

This event not only highlighted the depth of talent within our ecosystem but also underscored the powerful partnership between Digital Den and the Nashville Entrepreneur Center. Together, we’re bridging the gap between Montenegrin startups and the U.S. market, creating new opportunities for growth and collaboration on a global scale.

What’s next?

This showcase was just the beginning. It reaffirmed the global potential of Montenegrin innovation and strengthened Digital Den’s mission to elevate regional startups to even greater heights. With such a strong foundation, we’re poised for even more impactful collaborations and success stories in the future.

Celebrating Global Entrepreneurship Week

Proud of our collaboration with U.S. Department of State and US Embassy in Montenegro.

Thanks to the collaboration with the U.S. Department of State Montenegrin startups have established U.S. entities for the first time in 2023. Leading these transformative steps are DigiGrow, Flourish, and Badger, now positioned to grow and compete directly in the American market. Others are about to follow in 2025. 🔜

Our flagship initiative, the Montenegrin Technology Startup Bridge (MTSB) is at the core of this collaboration. Now entering its fourth year, MTSB has laid the foundation for cross-continental startup expansion, connecting Balkan innovators with the U.S. market. Thanks to MTSB, Digital Den has established a presence in key U.S. cities, including Phoenix, Austin, Denver, New York, Chicago, and Portland and we have just touched base with center of the MedTech in US- Nashville, Tennessee. Through its Acceleration and Soft Landing programs, this bridge of innovation allows our startups to step into new markets, connect with international investors, and achieve significant milestones.

This is why we are proud to say that Digital Den is - simply above.

Guest Lecture by Jelena Janković at the Entrepreneurial Nest

Digital Den, in collaboration with the University of Donja Gorica, hosted another guest lecture at the Entrepreneurial Nest this Thursday. Jelena Janković, co-founder of the startup 3 Hills, shared her remarkable journey from an idea to a successful business, highlighting the importance of courage, strategy, and talent development in the gaming industry.

Students had the opportunity to receive valuable insights on how to break into the IT and gaming worlds, with Jelena captivating the audience with her passion and expertise. The attendees were highly engaged, asking questions and absorbing lessons that will undoubtedly guide them in their entrepreneurial and professional paths.

This event was a powerful reminder of how innovation and dedication are key to success. We believe Jelena’s achievements have inspired a new generation of talent to embark on their own entrepreneurial journeys.
