#TDC17 Startup Semi-Finalists
Who Made The 6th Annual Startup Competition Cut
As we enter the final week of preparation leading up to our tenth anniversary Thinking Digital Conference we are proud to announce the 10 Startups that have made the cut for our 6th Annual Startup Competition.
Before we make the announcement, firstly we’d like to thank all start ups and founders that took the time to enter. This year has been our hardest decision yet on who made the semi final, with so many great companies submitting.
Secondly, we would like to invite you to come and vote on who you think should make the final by joining us at Campus North, 2:30pm on Tuesday 16th May. You will get to meet and hear from the founders of the companies and cast your vote to who could be in to win the cash prize of £1000.
If you’d like to come along, you can register here, FREE: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/thinking-digital-2017-6th-annual-startup-competition-registration-33206014082
