Calling all Scottish startups: if you have a demo-ready product or service and want to tap into the money, experience and network in London, pack your bags and head to the Launch48 Showcase.
The event, on 2 September, is a new offering from the talented Launch48 team, who have organised a series of top-notch startup events in the U.K. and abroad. Startup Cafe reps attended one of their weekend events earlier this year and were blown away by the calibre of the attendees.
High-profile figures from PayPal, Yahoo, Seedcamp and Tech Crunch attended, not to mention VCs and Angel Investors. Other major sponsors include Amazon, Sun Microsystems and Vodaphone. The place was packed with experience, enthusiasm, expertise and money.
But that event was about building new companies. This one is about showcasing your own. And if there was one thing amiss about our previous experience at Launch48, it was the lack of Scottish tech and talent.
So seriously, pack your bags. It’s £10 to attend the Showcase, and free to exhibit–though you’ll have to apply for a space. Deadline 20 August.

Thanks Hilary, great summary.
Anyone can exhibit or attend (assuming the event isn’t full). It would be great to see some Scottish startups there as I am sure the attendees would love to learn more about startups from the north.
If there are any questions please contact us and I hope to see you there.
