What's Startup Booster?

Raising funding now or in the near future? 

Venture capital firms receive 1,000+ startup proposals per year. And they only select a few to finance annually. FinovateEurope's Startup Booster gives you a better chance of being one of them. 

Hand-selected startups will join an evening networking reception with early-stage VCs from across the UK and Europe. We'll share your company information with investors before the event so that you both get the most out of these one-to-one meetings.

Join us to give your startup a boost.
