Interested in the security for Smart Cities? As part of their Cyber Runway programme (a national incubator programme for cyber start-ups), Plexal will be holding an event in Sunderland – and you’re invited to take part!
This is a great opportunity to hear from Liz St Louis (Director of Smart Cities, Sunderland City Council) and Prof Chris Hankin (Imperial College London) who will share their expertise on Smart City and Cyber-Physical security challenges, alongside Department of Science, Innovation and Technology, Plexal and CyberNorth.
The event offers a unique opportunity for startups to network with fellow startups, industry experts and investors. Startups will also get to hear about how they can better engage with the local ecosystem and the various innovation programmes on offer.
There will also be a networking lunch, an opportunity meet the companies currently participating in the Plexal Cyber Runway programme, and the platform to pitch your cyber security solution for Smart Cities and Secure Connected Places.
Cyber Runway, funded by the Department of Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT), is the UK’s largest cyber security accelerator. They work with founders from idea to scale up to fast-track their growth. Over the past two years they’ve supported nearly 200 companies and helped them launch products, raise funding and secure pilots.
