Scaling through a pandemic - meet the Exchange cohort

Calendar icon to

Join us on Wednesday 26th May for an intimate conversation with three tech startup founders in Manchester on how they survived and thrived during a pandemic, while maintaining growth, raising investment and hiring remotely.

PixelMax, Veo World and Miss Kick are all members of the first cohort of Allied London's Exchange support and accelerator programme, proudly supported by Tech Nation as Knowledge Partner.

All three startups are at different stages of growth and faced unique challenges over the last 12 months.

The Exchange programme was created to support and empower the UK’s next best digital and tech start-ups with subsidised office space in Manchester city centre, a peer-to-peer network of founders and partners, and access to the tools and learnings they need to scale.

It is based at the Bonded Warehouse building, which is part of Allied London's Enterprise City, a 2 million square foot tech, media and cultural cluster.

 

* The Exchange programme is now open for applications for its second cohort, who will be welcomed into the space in August 2021.

In order to qualify for the scheme, businesses must meet at least one of the following criteria: 

  • the business has been trading for 1 – 3 years
  •  it is headquartered in the UK
  •  it is a digital tech business with a product or service to sell,
  • has at least one active client or pilot in progress, or has ambitions of growing and scaling. 

Successful applications will receive subsidised workspace at Bonded Warehouse throughout the length of the programme, and be supported through the wider Enterprise City district once they become alumni.

Enterprise City is set in the heart of Manchester, and developed by Allied London, an award-winning property development and investment company, Exchange intends to create a collaborative community of like-minded, forward-thinking entrepreneurs and global organisations.
