In partnership with WeWork and sponsored by Pizza Pilgrims
Leading entrepreneurs Tim Jackson (who sold QXL.com for $2bn) and Devika Wood (raised £2.7m for her healthcare startup, vida.co.uk) discuss their experiences raising investment with 2210fashion.com and Seven Magazine founder Marc Cameron (named in the Evening Standard's Silicon 60 -Tech City's most influential people for his work on the event), in a reprise of the successful investment series named as one of the inaugural London Technology Week's top events in 2014.
From seed to Series C investment, these pioneering entrepreneurs will discuss the best routes to funding and how they raised investment for their own businesses.
Now an investor through his VC Walking.vc, Tim understands both sides of the investment experience, and startup owners will have the chance to pitch their businesses to the panel in a 30-second elevator pitch segment at the end.
A third panelist will be announced, shortly.
