| Engish Tech Tour |
|
|
From June 30th to July 2nd
the English Tech Tour will introduce 25-30 of England’s most
promising technology companies to 60 privately invited delegates
featuring a broad spectrum of senior representatives from VC funds,
leading corporations and institutional investors. |
The Tour is a unique opportunity for delegates to gain
first-hand knowledge of England’s high-tech hubs and to meet a selection of
the most exciting technology companies. The Tour kicks-off with a Gala Event
on 30th June featuring a keynote by Lord David Sainsbury,
Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Science
and Innovation to which the ‘who’s who’ of the English tech scene will be
invited. Then, over the next two days, delegates literally ‘tour’ the
country, meeting key players and world-class start-ups in different regions
of England.
England
has entered the 21st century with strong credentials for building world
class, global technology companies. Universities, private sector research
labs and regional development agencies together with a mature venture
capital sector and a growing pool of qualified, entrepreneurial managers
place England at the forefront of Europe’s technology scene. The English
Tech Tour provides an opportunity to see why England attracted nearly half
of all venture capital investment made in Europe.
Global sponsors include Tornado Insider,
FORTUNE, Business 2.0, and Microsoft.
