Alongside the opportunity for startups to apply to pitch their startup at upSTART 18, the startup pitch competition at Digital DNA - startups are now being given the opportunity to exhibit over the full two days at Digital DNA, at St Georges Market, Belfast on the 19th and 20th June, in a dedicated startup zone.
Not only exclusive to startups selected to pitch at the two-day event, the startup zone will host startups who are looking to take full advantage of the two-day event, allowing for attendees, investors, speakers and media to meet and network with the startups on show.
Over two days, Digital DNA, Belfast will allow you to engage with an estimated 3,000 delegates from across a wide range of industries, with 150 top industry speakers set to inspire attendees with their eclectic knowledge across their eight key themes: Marketing, Data, Security, FinTech, DevOps, Innovation, Tech for Good and Startups.
Startups will receive:
-
A startup pod to exhibit in the upSTART zone at Digital DNA( 1.0m long x 0.5m wide x 1.1m high)
-
Your logo / branding on your pod within the upSTART zone.
-
Direct access to an estimated 3,000 visitors and business delegates.
-
The opportunity to meet and arrange meetings with investors and corporates.
-
Social media mentions during the event via @iamstartacus on Twitter.
-
3 full-access , 2-day exhibition tickets currently worth £99 + VAT each.
With the startup zone pods priced at £300+VAT, Simon Bailie, Commercial Director at Digital DNA explained the reasoning behind the startup zone:
“We recognise the role that Digital DNA has in supporting the next generation of tech innovators, which is why upSTART has become such an integral part of the Digital DNA conference. We wanted to create a startup zone that would provide affordable access and exhibition space to a world-class event. This means that all you need to do is arrive with your marketing material and laptop or tablet in order to showcase your startup over the course of the two-day event.”
Alastair Cameron, co-founder of Startacus and host to the upSTART startup pitch competition went on to say:
“It’s another great Digital DNA startup initiative for us to support. Unlike many other startup and tech events that put exhibition costs beyond the realms of affordability for many startups, this opportunity offers accessibility to both early-stage startups and those that have raised seed investment and beyond”
If you are interested in exhibiting your startup at Digital DNA, Belfast on the 19th and 20th June 2018, email alastair@startacus.net who can talk through the options and make the relevant introductions to the Digital DNA team to arrange.
