Startup events in the UK and Ireland in 2014
Last year (2013 being now a near distant memory) we shared with you all a select list of some of the Top Startup and Enterprise events happening in the UK and Ireland.
Therefore we thought it only right to return with a new list and surprise surprise this year being 2014, the list focuses on the top events happening over 
the next 12 months.
So how did we come up with this particular list? Well as you know here at Startacus we are pretty keen on anything startup related and over time we come across a vast array of events and general happenings- this list is a selection of those taking place this year which we reckon are worth keeping an eye on.
If you think then that we’ve missed out on a few crackers (sorry we’ve still got Christmas on the brain) then please do email iam@startacus.net to tell all! At this point we should probably mention that this is by no means a definitive list - so please do shout rather loudly if you think others should be added...
