The Airbnb Startup Experience
Organized by
See London's world of entrepreneurs, tech startups and innovation in a revolutionary new way - with Airbnb.
Why join.
A truly mind-shifting experience inside London's tech startup scene. One of the hottest and best startup scenes in the world.
In partnership with Airbnb, the world's largest community driven travel company, The Startup Experience revolutionises how a diversity of people from around the world explore and learn about building startups via London's ecosystem, tech startup communities and innovation, in just one day, that's now been experienced by teams from Apple, Google, Ebay and others, startup founders, company CEO's, consultants and innovators from more than 120 cities around the world.
What you'll do.
We begin in Tech City and Silicon Roundabout, with insights about the rise of London's startup ecosystem - from its hackathon history to its growing trends and what is happening now - as we visit the coolest new concepts in coworking space you'll see anywhere in the world.
Then, we'll visit one of London's best startup communities, to hear examples and stories of how entrepreneurs are solving big problems, creating new business models and launching innovative companies in areas from fintech, to blockchain, to artificial intelligence, all within startup communities. Plus discover the process startups go through, what investors look for when funding startups and why, and how to pitch your startup for venture capital.
Finally, we'll explore one of the best locations in Europe for innovation and the design thinking behind products that have changed the world. From brands like Apple, Google and Facebook to the future of revolutionary technologies like augmented reality, smart cities apps, fashion tech, and 3D printing.
Get answers to questions, direction on your next steps, and foster genuine connections in this mind-shifting, learning experience - for individuals, partners, teams or groups.

The format.
The day is designed as a tour through London, visting a number of startup locations, with a group of 2 to 6 people, kept deliberately small for better discussion and learning.
Where we go.
We begin at 11am in East London's Tech City, Shoreditch and Silicon Roundabout area: the world's 3rd largest technology startup scene, after San Francisco and New York. Then to central London. And finally, finishing the day in Kensington at 3pm. We'll be taking walks and trips on the London tube, so you'll need an Oyster Card, Contactless or use of Apple Pay.

Confirm your spot.
1. If a date you want is available, book it immediately. Don't wait. The most frequent message received is: "Hi, I saw the date I wanted earlier, but now its gone!" Because it was booked full by others.
2. The day includes visiting startup locations around the city, so wear comfortable clothing and shoes, with minimum bags if possible. And give yourself extra travel time on the day to avoid being late or left behind. As communication with late guests by phone or messenger is limited once we leave the meeting spot at 11:30am.
3. All building locations are fully accessible. However, do get in touch within 60 minutes of booking if you have any specific travel, mobility or accessibility needs.
4. This is a hugely interactive, learning and sociable experience, and people like taking photos and videos throughout the day. So you may appear in some!
