SETsquared Bristol

We are thrilled to be announced as a finalist of the Hottest Accelerator Award in The Europas, the premier awards for the hottest tech startups in Europe.

This is our second year in the shortlist, with 2020 seeing us winning the title against stiff competition from London and European accelerators.

This year, SETsquared Bristol is competing with four other companies, London & Partners Business Growth Programme, Outlier Ventures, SpinLab – the HHL and Startup Wise Guys. The winner will be announced at The Europas Virtual Awards on 24 June 2021.

Monika Radclyffe, SETsquared Bristol Centre Director, said: “We are delighted that we have been recognised again by a judging panel of founders and investors for our truly bespoke business support that sets us apart from other accelerators and helps our founders succeed.”

SETsquared Bristol members have also seen past success at The Europas, with Immersive Labs announced as finalists in 2019, and Ultraleap and Elvie both winners in 2018 and 2017 respectively.

Set up in 2009 by Mike Butcher of Techcrunch, The Europas have recognised some of Europe’s most ambitious and successful startups, including Spotify, Transferwise, Soundcloud and Babylon Health.
