What to expect?
For the first time ever Startup Summit is both online and in-person!
After a long 18 months without in-person gatherings, we’re delighted that Startup Summit 2021 will take place online and in-person at Dovecot Studios, Edinburgh.
From 25-27th October, we will gather online to make connections, join interactive workshops and hear insights from world-class speakers.
Then, on 28th October, we will come together for a day of much-missed in-person connections. We’ll have an exhibitor hall full of the support you need, facilitated sessions, educational keynotes, interviews & panels

HeySummit is an online platform that hosts events. There, you’ll find all of the keynotes, interviews, Q&As and panels, as well as access the virtual networking space.
Remo:
the video networking space
The fun and easy-to-use networking space allows you to chat to attendees as you would at a physical event - via video chat. Just click through from HeySummit to explore the virtual networking space. This is also where you’ll find the exhibitor marketplace!
Slack:
the networking forum
Slack is a messaging platform that will give you direct access to other attendees, partners, exhibitors and the Startup Summit team. If you haven’t used Slack before, don’t worry - just create a free account to join the conversion. For more info, check out this useful guide here.
HeySummit, Remo and Slack are available in your browser, so you don’t have to download anything to get involved!
