Dimple Patel
Trouva
The BAE HQ welcomes Dimple Patel, the COO of Trouva and exited founder of Love Koffee.
Dimple grew up in a violent council estate and was always curious and learning. She thrived at university and landed a job as a trader at Goldman Sachs. Yet she wanted a new challenge and bought a failing coffee business at just 23. Dimple turned it around and sold it once it had grown to 37 stores!
Next, she joined Trouva, a marketplace for independent boutiques, and helped them raise $40m. She then negotiated a sale to Made.com which went bust soon after! Then incredibly she sold the business again.
