5050 Climb
Join fellow scientists and engineers this Saturday for some bouldering, where we will be chatting about transforming breakthrough research into impactful startups!
1:45 - 2:00 PM - Check in and meet fellow researchers.
Preregistration is recommended if new to London Climbing Centres
2:00 - 3:30 PM – Bouldering! Whilst crimping 9c's, we’ll discuss questions like:
Is my research addressing a large enough market?
How do I build the right team?
Am I the right person to lead this startup?
We’ll also share a brief overview of 5050, a free 16-week program from Fifty Years that equips scientists and engineers to launch civilization-defining companies. For more inspiration, check out the Spinout Playbook to see how others have gone from lab to startup.
This meetup is part of an initiative to bring researchers together through shared interests, nurturing the spark that can lead to groundbreaking ventures.
5050 UK is powered by our partnership with the Advanced Research and Invention Agency (ARIA). Join us for some bouldering—because failing repeatedly is more satisfying when you can blame friction instead of your data!
The cost of climbing and shoes are included but if you're new you'll need to pay a £2 registration fee.
