Startup Guide – London

With over 2,000 start-ups, 30 accelerators and 48,000 people employed in the digital economy, London is the beating heart of the European startup scene, and Europe’s number one start-up hotspot. The city supports a culture of creativity and innovation that allows new businesses to be born and to flourish, and creates opportunities for individuals to grow and develop into game-changers and industry leaders. With fierce competition to lead development between different areas in the city, a plethora of co-working spaces, accelerators and incubators, and a fast-paced culture that combines social time with learning and networking opportunities, London has a lot to offer potential startups and their employees.

Startup Guide is a book series filled with advice, how to’s, case studies, inspiration and a fresh + real perspective of how to start a business in a city. It is based on the idea of a traditional guidebook, a book you carry along with you when you’re traveling to a new place to start up a project or business. Why do you need it? To find secret spots, to know where to go, who to talk to and what not to miss – all recommended by the people who know the city the best: THE LOCALS!
