A Visionary Force Joins Peachscore: Welcoming David Friedman as Strategic Advisor

Peachscore is on a mission to empower startups and investors with data, insight, and AI-powered analysis—and this mission is fueled by the strength of our community. Today, we are honored to welcome a powerhouse in innovation, marketing, and business growth to our advisory board: David Friedman, one of the most respected strategic minds in the Southern California startup ecosystem.

With over three decades of leadership at the intersection of technology, operations, and marketing, David brings a powerful blend of strategic vision and executional excellence to Peachscore. He has launched more than $1.5 billion in new products, driving growth and delivering exceptional value across both startups and global enterprises—all while mentoring the next generation of business leaders. Having served as President of TCA Orange County and Chairman of TCA Venture Group’s Board of Governors, David has been a champion of early-stage innovation. Beyond capital, he is a trusted advisor and growth strategist who helps companies unlock new revenue streams and scale sustainably.

“As the startup ecosystem has grown, so has the demand for accelerators—yet out of 1.6 million applications last year, only 48,000 startups were accepted, leaving over 97% underserved and overlooked. Peachscore was built to close that gap by giving more startups access to vital resources, making the accelerator model scalable, and unleashing the power of AI-driven insights for all startup stakeholders. David Friedman’s deep expertise—as a respected investor with one of the nation’s largest angel groups, TCA Venture Group, a seasoned corporate executive, and a successful entrepreneur—adds tremendous strategic value to our team. His perspective will help bring Peachscore closer to its mission as we lead the transformation of how innovation is discovered, supported, and scaled globally.” —Alex Mojtahedi, CEO of Peachscore

David’s addition to the Peachscore Advisory Board is deeply significant as we continue to scale our support for startups globally. His expertise in commercializing innovation, building go-to-market strategies, and driving revenue growth aligns directly with our mission to accelerate early-stage success through data, credibility, and connection. His presence not only enhances Peachscore's strategic depth but also strengthens our product roadmap, improves startup evaluation analysis, and helps us expand into the corporate world by extending our reports to more stakeholders across the startup ecosystem.

I joined the advisory board of Peachscore because of its innovative approach to leveraging technology and AI to help startups launch effectively, scale efficiently, and connect with funding sources such as TCA Venture Group to support their next stage of growth. This aligns perfectly with my passion for using smart tools and networks to accelerate entrepreneurial success. —David Friedman, Strategic Advisor, Peachscore
