NoBa Connect | UK First, Global Tomorrow. Backing Early-Stage Ventures from London.
At NoBa, our focus on UK-based innovation is intentional. We believe the earliest stage of company building is where structure, culture, and ambition are set, and London’s density of talent, customers, and capital creates unique advantages at that moment.
We build and centre our programmes in London while backing founders from across the UK. We do this because we consistently see the impact of proximity and shared learning at the early stage. Access to talent, early customers, capital, and other founders building alongside you materially shapes outcomes.
This NoBa Connect is a conversation about why NoBa builds in London, why we encourage founders from across the UK to engage here, and how the UK can be used as a foundation for building globally ambitious companies.
Rather than founder pitches or policy speeches, the evening will feature short perspectives from ecosystem and community builders, followed by open discussion. There will also be plenty of opportunity to learn, connect, and network with the NoBa community and like-minded people building and supporting early-stage companies.
