Deadline: 17 july 2022
The AXA Startup Angel competition, from AXA in partnership with the Evening Standard, will see a panel of judges – business high-flyers, including Evening Standard CEO Charles Yardley – pick the most inspiring ideas from a selection of elevator pitch videos.
There are six chances to win. Two competition winners will each receive the Gold prize of £25,000, mentorship, and business insurance for the first year from AXA. There are Silver and Bronze prizes too – both of which include a digital advertising campaign with the Evening Standard.
The average UK start-up spends around £23,000 in its first year – and the Gold Startup Angel competition prize not only helps to break through that financial barrier but also provides the winners with plenty of expert support.
