Feb/March International Office Hours 2.0
Global Tech Connect is delighted to be a supporting partner for International Office Hours 2.0, an initiative of Blue Lake VC.
The goal is simple - to link early-stage foreign founded startups in or on their way to the UK and the leading investors within the local ecosystem. This is NOT a pitching programme. The idea is to help founders to build new connections, obtain feedback, ask questions and start building relationships. Participating VC include Playfair Capital, Octopus Ventures, Local Global, Founders Factory and many more.
Contact Global Tech Connect for further details.
8-9 March Alpha Wolves Summit, London
Alpha Wolves is a two-day event full of focused talks, curated roundtable discussions and a chance for CEE start-ups and international LPs and GPs to engage with the people driving change in the UK start-up ecosystem.
The event is an exclusive forum for growth-stage companies partnering with venture and growth capital to achieve scale. At the core of Alpha Wolves is a simple, yet transformative idea: connecting CEE’s most promising scale-ups and the most influential LP and GPs from around the world with the UK venture ecosystem.
