RareFounders Raises the Bar: A Night of Networking, Pitching, and Startup Revelations! 🔥
Each RareFounders event feels like a new peak conquered, and last night was no exception. The London Startup Scene was abuzz with an electric mix of networking, pitching, and spontaneous fun that resonated throughout the venue.
The evening was not without its surprises, including my own comical attempt at stand-up comedy. 😜 It’s safe to say that my “epic fail” provided some unintended entertainment, perhaps signaling a hidden talent. 🤡
We were at full capacity, with over 250 dynamic founders, keen investors, and other pivotal members of the startup community.
A heartfelt thank you to Daniel Atherton of Dune Technology Ltd for not just sponsoring the event but also for extending a warm welcome to everyone. 🤗
The night featured our inaugural #founderstories series with Anthony Rose from SeedLegals gracing the stage. His seasoned insights into the entrepreneurial journey were nothing short of inspirational, serving as a powerful reminder that perseverance is key to overcoming the inevitable hurdles of startup life.
We continued with our pitching session, this time ensuring a balanced representation of female and male founders, which I'm proud to say was a success. The dedication and talent displayed on stage were matched only by the stunning views of London's nightscape that left me in awe after the crowd dispersed.
Special thanks to the amazing people who made this possible: Cynthia Kesington, Rob Woodhead, Joshua Finkill, and Elizabeth Rochester. Your support is the backbone of RareFounders.
