Google for Startups Immersion

London Immersion -

What is Google for Startups Immersion?

We believe that London became the Silicon Valley of Europe because of its access to funding, talent, founder experience and education.

At the same time we recognise that there is an incredible wealth of passion, talent and opportunity in all corners of the UK.

We want to help exceptional founders and their teams connect to the ecosystem in London and tap into the opportunities here while they continue growing their businesses in their home ecosystems, create local success stories and employment.

The Google for Startups Immersion is a 12-week program designed to bring the best of Google and the London ecosystem to 10 startups from across the UK.
