  • As a co-founder you will work alongside a team of world-class investors and technology specialists who will provide access to their networks (particularly in loyalty, media and advertising).

Throughout the competition you will be provided with a range of support: 1-2-1 meetings and advice on your pitch, Technical Briefings and Ideation Sessions.
