It is our pleasure to invite you to the first Imperial Techcelerate Showcase.
The Techcelerate Showcase is a private viewing of our inaugural Techcelerate cohort ventures. This invite-only day event is an opportunity for our partners, investors, and contributors, to celebrate the successful end of our 2018 pilot programme. Attendees will get a first look at some of Imperial’s brightest talent and cutting-edge research and technologies -  from energy storage, drug discovery and water purification; meet the founders and network some of our partners and investors.
   
   Friday 23rd March 2018
   Imperial White City Incubator, 80 Wood Lane, Ground Floor iHUB
   Presentations begin at 12pm. Drinks & Canapés will be served at 2pm
 
The Techcelerate Showcase is an exciting opportunity for this year’s cohort to present their ‘Techcelerate learning journey’. Over the past three months, the teams have been hard at work, meeting and interviewing 100+ prospective customers, competitors, regulators, suppliers and partners. This invaluable feedback and insight will help inform their critical next steps towards commercialising their venture.
