Alisha Davis — Co-Founder

I believe global expansion isn't reserved for the few—it's possible when founders are supported by the right networks, insights, and access. My work is rooted in creating access, building trust, and enabling founders to navigate international markets. At Carve Startup Labs, we support startups through structured market access programs and launchpad initiatives to help them scale globally. In parallel, we partner with governments and innovation bodies worldwide—amplifying their opportunities, programs, and support systems to our founder network, and enabling G2G partnerships that bridge ecosystems and drive growth. 👋 Hi, I'm Alisha Davis, Co-Founder & CMO at Carve Startup Labs. I’m passionate about helping startups go global—seamlessly and strategically. 🌐 What Drives Me Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of leading international Market Access Programs, guiding startups into global ecosystems across India, the USA, Germany, France, Austria, Belgium, Japan, Singapore, and the Middle East. With strong collaborations in 20+ countries, we’ve built pathways that help founders scale with clarity, confidence, and the right connections. Through curated delegation programs, I’ve supported 250+ Indian startups in navigating new markets—equipping them with tailored insights, ecosystem exposure, and strategic direction. I'm especially proud to have facilitated landmark global missions, including the Belgium Princess Delegation to India, the Mayor and Senator of Berlin’s visit to India, and government-led engagements from Dubai and Sharjah. Our programs have created meaningful startup showcases at global stages like Gitex Dubai, VivaTech France, SelectUSA, Bengaluru Tech Summit, Startup Mahakumbh, Sushi Tech Japan, and AsiaBerlin. Beyond global growth, I believe in nurturing the next generation of changemakers.
