Super Connect London (AI & MedTech)
On the 14th November 2019, we welcome you to join us for our Super Connect London for AI & MedTech event held in partnership with Hays, Microsoft for Startups and UnLtd sponsored by Future Kings & WorldFirst at Microsoft Reactor in London.
The event brings you together with people and organisations to support your business development, innovation sourcing and/or fundraising interests through our match-making process including:

Upon arrival at the event you'll be informed by email of your 5-9 super connections which you can find throughout the day with the help of our 'Wall of Faces' and 4 Super Connectors who can make warm introductions.
