From Start up to Scale up: the Founders' Stories: Past, Present and Future

Past events

What better way to celebrate the return of live events at The Steel Yard than by inviting back four founders that we first had on stage in the early days of launching their companies.

Matthew and Robin were joined on stage by Ed Leon Klinger (Flock), Oliver Brew (CyberCube), Andre Symes (Genasys Technologies), and Jonathan Spry (Envelop Risk). They shared their experiences of making the switch from start-up to scale-up and advice on surviving the ups and downs of early-stage growth. 

They were joined by four recent insurtech arrivals looking to make their mark. Andy Thompson (Safehub), Dan Roberts (Nayms), Ben Smyth (Arma Karma), Mike Minett (Portabl) and Nader AlSalim (Gaia) outlined their ideas and what is next for their respective companies. 

Highlights of the interviews with Ed, Oliver, Andre and Jonathan are now available to listen to on InsTech London Podcast 158. We will bring you the interviews from the rest of our guest speakers on the podcast soon. 

Photos from the event are available now on our Flickr page. If you spot yourself, or someone you know, then please feel free to download and share the images.
