Start Tank London Now Accepting Applications
We’re excited to see growth in startups, but we also recognise that the first few years can be very challenging for a young business. This is one of the reasons why we’re extending our successful Start Tank London programme to a new cycle of startups. By placing them directly in our vibrant ecosystem, we hope to help them grow and succeed.
 
At Start Tank London, we will select up to six technology startups from across the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region to host at our offices in central London for six months. They will be surrounded daily by other entrepreneurs who are committed to helping them succeed in addition to:
 
  • Complimentary co-working space with all amenities of our Braintree office
  • Access to mentors and thought-leaders from a network of executives from PayPal and Braintree and external high-level advisors to help them make decisions to drive profitable growth
  • Networking and business opportunities with angel investors and venture capitalists, as well as other vital business connections
  • Access to all the benefits included in Startup Blueprint, such as waived PayPal and Braintree fees, and a dedicated customer care team
At the end of the six-month programme, the startups will present their vision and business models at a Demo Day, and we won’t take any equity in the businesses.
 
Last year, we launched the Startup Blueprint programme to help startups get up and running by giving them up to $1.5 million of free processing and with Start Tank London, we are further continuing to help startups get off the ground.
 
The UK startup industry is an exciting and competitive ecosystem and one we are proud to be a part of. For more information on Start Tank and to take a look at the participants from the first cycle, please visit: https://london.starttank.com/community.html
 
We look forward to seeing the next wave of Start Tank participants. The application process for Start Tank London is open now, and you can apply here.
