Navigating telecoms investment in Scotland

If you run a deep tech start-up in the North of England or Scotland and have potential applications or a market within the telecoms sector – this event is a must-attend.

UK Telecoms Innovation Network (UKTIN) is the innovation network for the UK telecoms sector, bringing together industry, government stakeholders and academia to catalyse R&D investment, cooperation and commercialisation.

Earlier in the year, it realised a first-of-its-kind Telecoms Investment Report, which explored the investment trends shaping the future of the telecoms industry, revealing that £1.4bn of venture capital had been invested in the UK telecoms sector in the last four years.

Now, turning the spotlight onto the Scottish landscape, this session will provide investment advice and insights to Scottish-based start-ups looking to enter the telecoms market or seeking funding to develop their applications for the telecoms market.

Agenda:

10:00 – 10:10 Welcome
10:10 – 10:20 Overview of key themes
10:20 – 10:45 Panel: What are the challenges and opportunities for early-stage deep-tech companies in Scotland? The panel members will all have experience and an understanding of the Scottish landscape and how it differs from the UK.
10:45 – 10:55 Q & A
10:55 – 11:00 Live opportunities and wrap-up
