SwiftScale has launched its Spring ’18 programme in collaboration with Macquarie Group, the global investment banking and diversified financial services group.

Over 100 decision makers and influencers from FTSE 100 and Fortune Global 500 companies assembled at Schroders’ London headquarters to hear eight fast-growth startups present innovative solutions to various common business problems.

Throughout the programme, Amplyfi, APEXX, Freeformers, Libryo, LivingLens, Panaseer, Qlearsite and Tessian will leverage SwiftScale’s extensive executive network to establish business relationships, create new commercial opportunities and gain insight into large enterprise clients.

Alexander Sainty, CEO, SwiftScale said: “Getting access to decision makers within large organisations is extremely time-consuming. This programme is a rare opportunity for founders to capitalise on a ready-made enterprise network without getting too distracted from running their businesses.”

By bringing together forward-thinking business leaders and fast-growth B2B startups, SwiftScale promotes business efficiency through collaborative innovation.
