How it all started
In 2019, Diogo Valente embarked on a personal health journey that led him to the gym, where he met Tiago Rebelo. During breaks from their workouts, they discussed their shared frustration over the scarcity of tasty and accessible vegan ice cream. This sparked the idea to create Swee, a startup founded by Gen Z entrepreneurs with a mission to revolutionise the ice cream industry. Together, Diogo and Tiago identified a market opportunity waiting to be seized.
Swee & Delta Ventures
Delta Ventures and Swee first crossed paths at From Start to Table, an event sponsored by us. Swee’s exceptional vision, creativity, and determination were impressive enough to lead to a strategic partnership – this collaboration empowered them to enhance their distribution and production capabilities, successfully navigating the challenges of introducing a new product category. We are here to support them in reaching new heights of authenticity, boldness, and flavour.
