The aim of this competition is to identify the brightest European companies in new technologies and to support them in their international projects by offering a tailor-made programme of visits to the UK. The UK Government and their partners will help them to discover the British ecosystem with visits to incubators and leading tech clusters as well as meetings with investors.

Last week the competition entered the pitching phase where the 10 best French candidates had the opportunity to present their project in front of a high level jury composed of business leaders, venture capitalists, negotiators and tech specialists. After the jury’s deliberations, we are delighted to announce the names of the French companies that will participate in the selection for the grand final scheduled to take place in London in March 2021.
