What is Startup Shuttle?

Categorised in:


A campaign to persuade Sir Richard Branson to give entrepreneurs a Virgin train

Startup Shuttle is a movement to encourage Virgin Trains to allocated startups space on one London-Edinburgh train (via Birmingham) once a month to help mobilize startups in the UK, from North to South and connect entrepreneurial communities.

Startup Shuttle would help startup events: Productcamp London  , UXCamp, VC talks, code bakes, workshops, networking and more.

Startup Shuttle is also going to approach government initiatives to support and subsidize our efforts. 

Startup Shuttle's objective is to connect entrepreneurs up and down the country with end-users, financiers and the wider business community via the startup shuttle.
