Once again we will be taking over the Club Workspace basement to host an evening where all manner of tech & digital startups can learn, share, connect, and enjoy the craic!
During the social / meetup we will be holding a 50 minute session on ensuring success before, during, and after an accelerator programme. This will include industry-leading guest speakers sharing insider’s perspectives on how to give a stellar performance throughout your accelerator experience.
