UK Together: Collaborating to Scale

As the UK tech ecosystem has moved through resilience to recovery, the clear takeaway form the past 9 months have shown the path to recovery is not one that you can go alone.

This session will gather experts, key players, and founders from tech ecosystems across the nation to share tips on how businesses across the UK can access finances, resources, how to grow their network and how to leverage ecosystems to scale their businesses.

Good Growth Summit

Reflecting on the last year, it is clear there is a tide of change rushing towards us and the good growth narrative is key to staying afloat. There is no better time to address the global need for good growth, inclusivity and diversity on many fronts – gender, race, religious, sexual orientation, and more.

The Good Growth Summit now has an opportunity to help spread the ‘good growth’ narrative beyond UK and Silicon Valley as we engage with female, diverse and under-represented leaders from across the globe.

CEO Summit (Closed Event)

With global changes over the past 9 months, businesses have had to adapt and onboard new forms of innovation. Thus, the challenges faced by this year’s Scale Up Club will be different from years past as some of the businesses have had to put scaling plans on hold, make tough decisions about their direction of growth and even pivot their businesses entirely.

For the first time instead of focusing on what are the barriers to scale, we ask our Scale Up Club to think about how they can turn challenges into opportunities.

BEYOND HORIZONS: CONNECTING GLOBAL ECOSYSTEMS

As the world has collectively had to face COVD-19, we have seen how innovation across global tech ecosystem has come to the fore. We have all commonly seen the importance of tech and the power of paying it forward.

As we look forward at a new future, we must take the learnings of this past year with us – specifically how collaboration and knowledge sharing will only strengthen the tech sectors in our respective markets, not hinder them.

Reinventing the now: Co-creating a new future of tech

As our world faces insurmountable changes, there are numerous opportunities for businesses to be providing their customers with ways to express themselves, communicate and connect.

In our final session of the SVC2UK summit, we talk with global leaders of tech firms that are challenging the status quo and disrupting the world around them. Whether it is changing the way we think about the world around us to giving the power to the hands of the consumer, these disruptors are changing the future.
