About Us
Investors have a hard time finding and investing in high-quality companies that share the same values they do. That’s why we connect companies with investors where business leaders can use their wealth and experience to change the world and make an impact. The Lion’s Den DFW was created to “inspire, educate, and mobilize” high capacity Christian business men and women to invest their efforts, talents, and resources for Kingdom Impact - pursuing “Business as Mission” investments, opportunities & lifestyles.

Thoughts from our Members
"The mission of The Lion’s Den shines forth through its leadership and frankly, I am humbled that God has allowed me to be a part of it in some way."
"Compelling content and great connections."
"Great presentations. Speakers are AMAZING."
" It was really valuable to see other startup pitch decks and to hear the feedback of the investors/participants. The feedback is applicable to every startup pitch, so I gained a lot from it! Of course, it is always valuable to meet people in this space, particularly at the intersection of faith and startup. "
"You all have done a superb job in providing a space where we can all connect! The breakfasts are an opportunity for entrepreneurs to interface with others who are walking the same journey as well as those with greater experience to offer sound, beneficial advice. You are making a profound impact on many levels. It is valuable to hear and see a variety of “pitches” and educational to listen to the feedback companies receive. Thank you for providing this opportunity!
"The network dinner is an amazing event. It proved a wonderful way to meet both other entrepreneurs and investors potentially interested in our companies."
"What a blessing to be able to attend in a virtual mode this incredible event!"
"Excellent event, excellent content and speakers, and great companies, but the highlight was the networking and hearing about the good that others are doing with and through their companies and investments. Well done!"
"Lion's Den was an amazing learning experience. I enjoyed networking and learning about the process of creating a start up."
"GREAT virtual event! For an organization to have pivoted a global event so quickly from live to virtual, was unbelievable in of itself. I felt more engaged with the information and presenters, and paid attention to sponsor commercials. Really like the new monthly breakfast networking meetings with multiple presenters."
"Very interesting topics! Very collaborative for all involved, shared introductions. I always feel fulfilled, an event worthy of my time when I am called to attend."
"I received valuable feedback on my pitch, product and business model. Most importantly, I made several great connections with other faith minded entrepreneurs and investors. Thanks again for the opportunity!"
"You create a welcoming environment that clearly is trying to help other Christians achieve BAM"
