What you need to know
As part of the new process, we’ve selected startups working in AdTech/MarTech, FinTech, HealthTech, PropTech and Cybersecurity – stay tuned for the shortlist – to participate in our live pitching day at Rich Mix in Shoreditch on 9th November.
Each participant will pitch live on stage to a panel of expert panel judges, fellow startups and the public. We’ll be announcing the final list of judges soon, but in the meantime, register for your free ticket here.
Previous finalists include the likes of Deliveroo, which has since gone on to raise more than $470m; Hassle.com and What3Words.
The awards
The finalists will all be invited to attend an awards ceremony with live entertainment, drinks and food, where they’ll be in with the chance of winning a number of accolades.
Award winners will also have their pitch professionally filmed, providing a useful PR tool to share with journalists, customers and potential investors.
