Tech Talent Live Programme

We are finalising the programme and more information will be posted here soon.

Overview

This session will look at how your start up can be protected in respect of using data, developing and commercialising intellectual property, and what potential investors are looking for in respect of sensible risk management and governance.  

  

We will look at your first relationships - with your co-founders, your first customers, your first employees and your suppliers.  

  

Ensuring you start off correctly means that you are ready for investment and a future exit, along with ensuring your business can come through challenges as robustly as possible.
