[UK] Coming to America with Dave Palmer (Ten Eleven Ventures & Darktrace)
For many UK tech companies, the US offers an opportunity to access increased capital, commercial opportunities, and organisational rigour. However, successfully competing with US companies in their home market requires a willingness to re-evaluate many aspects of a UK tech business.
For this fireside chat, we'll be joined by Dave Palmer, the Co-founder of Darktrace (IPO & $5.3Bn acquisition) and GP at Ten Eleven Ventures. Dave will be in conversation with GBx Advisory Board Member and Managing Partner of Wilson Sonsini London, Daniel Glazer.
The pair will discuss what it takes for a UK tech company to compete and win in the US and to meet the expectations of US investors, commercial partners, employees, and acquirers.
With thanks to our partners: Silicon Valley Bank and WSGR.
