Why you should enter Launchpad at Subcon 2021

With the deadline for Launchpad at Subcon looming (August 20th), Dr Joe Handsaker, CEO of Elements Technology and winner of the Launchpad at Subcon in 2019, explains how entering – and winning - can transform your enterprise.

As a startup, we’re always looking for events where we can exhibit for free and with Launchpad, there was a free spot, we turned up and we had a stand amongst the other startups. We’re always interested in seeing what’s new and out there, so we got a lot of interest.
