Event details

No entry without the tickets booked via Eventbrite https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-london-startup-scene-networking-and-open-mic-pitching-tickets-912736027027?aff=locals ————— This event brought to you by Rare Founders in partnership with Konnekt Club and Founders Connect. Welcome to the June 2024 edition of The London Startup Scene – not your average snooze-fest. Being the first with the open-mic concept in London, we are definitely the best (say hi to our copy cats😎) ! We usually pack in over 200 cool individuals: 60% founders, 15% investors, and the remaining 25%? The movers and shakers of the startup jungle. 🌪️🚀 Doors? They swing open at 6pm, but the real magic starts around 7pm. Whether you're a founder with dreams bigger than your wallet, an investor hunting for the next big thing, or just someone who loves the electric energy of a startup mosh pit, The London Startup Scene is where the action's at! 🎉💡 Usually we start with an informal chat with one of our guests ( up to 30 mins) followed by 5-6 rounds of open mic picthing sessions. This time, our guest is Jean-Philippe Schepens, founder at Axonjay. He will be sharing his shocking personal experience with fundraising scams. As a seasoned serial entrepreneur, he has navigated the treacherous waters of the startup world and seen it all. This is a crucial and often overlooked topic that can strike anyone at any moment, with devastating consequences. Don’t miss this eye-opening session that could save your startup! Once the interview is over we will start our open mic picthing. Deets on Open Mic Pitching: Wanna pitch? Only founders and investors are allowed. All you need to do is to raise your hand when we start. Keep it snappy. You’ve got 60 seconds of fame. Every 20 mins, 6 lucky (or unlucky, depends on nerves!) founders hit the stage for their minute in the spotlight. No prior bookings needed. We do it fair and randomly pick from the crowd of volunteers who are ready to rock the boat. Pitching is FREE. 🍻🎤
