Huge thanks to the team at Jumpstart for a fantastically well run inaugural Jumpstart 5K. 👏 It was a joy to see our London-based startup friends getting offline together, and we were equally thrilled with a 2nd place finish overall. We'll be back next year for a crack at the top spot! P.S. Matthew Sarre - if you need some new tech to help you make next year even bigger and better...we might just know someone who knows someone. 😉
8 weeks ago it was just an idea to put on the largest startup run in the world. And yesterday it happened. Yesterday we launched "The Jumpstart 5K". We had 1000 runners from across the London startup ecosystem come to run, drink, eat and socialise. It was cool. A MASSIVE shout out to our race winners: 🏆Fastest man: Max Glennon at Adsum 🏆Fastest woman: Bethanie Murray at Lendable Both get a weekend retreat at an Unyoked lodge. Thank you to Novabook (The Accountant for Startups) for sponsoring the prize (check 'em out, they're great). And a massive shout out to the top 5 FASTEST startup teams in London: 🥇Oppidan Education 🥈Let's Do This 🥉Infinium Logistics 4️⃣ Hubble 5️⃣ Olsam Another big thanks to our partners & sponsors: Novabook, YuLife, Focal, Universal Partners, ELEAT, Lucky Saint | B Corp™, James White Ltd and Boundless. PS turns out that putting on an event of this size is in fact rather logistically complex. Somehow Emilie Lauga and the Jumpstart team pulled it off 👏.
