Generator is pleased to announce the second workshop in our collaborative series with the Newcastle Tech Trust, aimed at tech founders.
Newcastle Tech Trust is a group of experienced founders and operators that recognises and understands the needs of early-stage, high-growth technology companies.
We’ll kick off with a 2-hour workshop on understanding and raising investment with Howard Kingston. From gaming and mobile ads to adventure sports, there’s a reason why world changing entrepreneurs turn to Howard to help launch and grow their businesses. He’s been there and done it, as a founder, as a VP Marketing, as a coach. He’s one of the few ‘Growth Hackers’ that has actually done it. Launching & growing gaming startup I Am Playr from zero to 15 million users. Two of the last three businesses he’s helped launch have been acquired. The third has offices worldwide, raised millions in VC investment & are well on their way. He co-founded Adludio, who Nike, Unilever, Sony & 100+ more Fortune 500 brands turn to for their mobile advertising.
The workshop will be followed by a panel discussion talking around the different types of investment available from angels and venture capital to crowdfunding. Speakers include Alasdair Greig from Northstar Venturesand more to be announced shortly.
As if that wasn’t enough, there will, of course, be pizza and beer provided.
