🏴 Techscaler Scottish Founders Showcase - A night of meaningful connections, pitches, and opportunities.
Join us in for an exclusive evening of innovation and inspiration as Techscaler partners with WITR to showcase the best of Scotland’s tech scene.
Over the last few weeks, a cohort of 13 Scottish founders have immersed themselves in the heart of global tech innovation - Silicon Valley. At the showcase, they will share what they’ve built, learned, and where they’re going next.
This is a special end-of-programme showcase with the May '25 cohort of founders from Techscaler’s Silicon Valley International Programme.
This event, held on Market Street, features rapid-fire pitches and descriptions from the talented startups in the Techscaler cohort, each presenting cutting-edge solutions and groundbreaking ideas and hand picked to come to Silicon Valley. Connect with fellow innovators, gain insights into the future of tech, be inspired by the entrepreneurial, and leave no opportunity behind by using the ‘WITR - Who’s In The Room?’ platform on the evening. Numbers are limited.
