Velocity brings together entrepreneurs from across the UK with the participation of universities, accelerators, investors and marketers. The event is designed for start-ups that want real feedback, focusing on all business areas like product and strategy through direct audience feedback.
Top ten projects are selected to present, those who are not selected are encouraged to come along, learn from the presenters and network with industry professionals in a fun and open environment.
The process: Each organisation that participates puts forward executive summaries which will be reviewed by the event organisers on the 21st of October. They will then be scored from 1-10 and the highest scoring team will present at Velocity.
