Are you a founder interested in getting involved?

Putting your business in the spotlight.

How do I get involved?

Applications

After you apply to pitch at a Britain’s Got Startups event, applications will be filtered and the top 24 from each region are chosen.

Semi-finals

The semi-finals are virtual events where you will pitch to a judging panel. If you are successful, you will progress to the regional final.

Regional Finals

At the regional final, you will pitch in person to an audience of investors, local stakeholders and business leaders. If you are successful, you will progress to the grand finale in London.

Finals

If you are successful at one of the regional finals, you will be invited to pitch at the final event in London where we aim to create an international platform of investors.

Why should I get involved as a start-up or scale-up business?

Everything you need to know.

  • If you pitch at a semi-final event, you will receive insightful feedback on your investment deck from the judging panel.

  • If you make it through to a Regional Final or the London finale, you will receive media content from the event.

  • We aim for the audience at our Regional Finals to consist of 60% investors including angels, family offices, venture capital and venture debt firms.

  • We hope our events are a chance for you to make long-lasting connections with other founders and like-minded individuals.
