Join the second event of the UK-Israel Women Leading Innovationonline series, where leading VCs and Founders in Israel and the UK will be sharing concrete solutions to raising capital, specific opportunities to access cross-border networks and best business practices in uncertain times.

Lessons Learned

Define What Makes You Unique: Determine your unique selling proposition by spending more time in research, working on tech development and refining long term strategies.

Adapt Your Company To The New Normal While Sticking To Your Vision: Remember that investors still hold a long term view and want to see a consistent vision, great IP, promising commercial value and a strong leadership team.

Fail More Cleverly: No need to make your own mistakes. Instead, you can learn from the experience of others. Ensure you get some feedback that allows you to improve your approach.

Choose Your Investors By Doing Your Research Thoroughly: Don’t wait to be chosen. Establish whether an investment team can provide the minimum capital, if they’ve invested in your sector and if they have an interest in the innovation you offer.

Connect With Investors Online: Many investors are now spending much of their time working, connecting and investing virtually. Use this time to build your network and relationships with investors, early on.

This event is part of a series aimed at promoting women in the tech industry in both the UK and Israel. Organized by The UK Israel Tech Hub, in collaboration with the Department for International Trade (DIT), Science and Innovation Network (SIN) and the British Council.
