Ask HN: London Based Y Combinator?
Is there an equivalent Y Combinator incubator in London?
- revorad 16y agoI don't know of a YC-clone in London. There's Seedcamp and http://thedifferenceengine.eu http://thedifferenceengine.eu up north.
- vs2 16y agoan opening in the market perhaps
- tjp 16y agoThere are some schemes, nothing quite as advanced as Y combinator. - Seedcamp http://seedcamp.com/ http://seedcamp.com/ - Launch48 Launchpad http://www.launch48.com/launchpad/ http://www.launch48.com/launchpad/ But there are lots of places one could hang out and work on an idea: - Accelerator London: http://www.accelerator-london.com/ http://www.accelerator-london.com/ - London Hackspace: http://london.hackspace.org.uk http://london.hackspace.org.uk Shameless self-promotion, have a look around here about London based startup resources / opportunities (look at the schmoozing list!) - http://londonstartups.co.uk/ http://londonstartups.co.uk/
- mikebutcher 16y agoAnother place to "hang out and work on an idea" is http://techhub.com http://techhub.com @TechHub, a little like a KickLabs but without a fund. But Y-Com 'equivalents' would be Seedcamp (takes 8-10% of a startup) or The Difference Engine programme which is moving to Cambridge (just outside London)
- vs2 16y agoI like techhub, but I am talking about a investment/office space for n number of weeks
