We hosted a vibrant morning at “Startup Growth: From Istanbul to London and Beyond” with Fladgate LLP, an exclusive event celebrating the dynamic growth of startups from Istanbul to London and beyond.
Hosted by Academia Park London and Fladgate LLP at the chic Home Grown Private Members’ Club in London, this invite-only gathering was part of London Tech Week 2024 and was specially curated for Turkish Pavilion delegates.
The day kicked off with opening remarks at 9:30 AM, followed by an engaging fireside chat between Antonia Torr and Floren Cabrera F. de Teresa, the innovative mind behind Quantum Light & Helios Energia.
Attendees then dived deeper into the startup ecosystem with a panel session moderated by Ata Argüder, featuring insights from Howard Watt of Fladgate LLP, Ali Karabey of 212, and Duran Cesur of Atlas Ventures.
The morning wrapped up with a networking session at 10:30 AM, where participants connected with fellow visionaries and industry leaders.
It was a memorable cross-continental celebration of innovation and growth.
