Our Objectives
– Enhance existing strong links, and add new ones, between the London tech ecosystem and the Austin tech ecosystem, especially in the areas of creative tech, gaming, education, life sciences / biomedical, food tech, fashion tech, mobility innovations, zero waste, and advanced manufacturing.
– Facilitate the movement of advocates between the two ecosystems and provide introductions to Austin and London.
– Act as a convener for disparate individuals, companies, and organizations in London and Austin and promote events that may be of interest to our members, with a focus on organizing and leading delegations to Austin for South By Southwest (SXSW) each year in March, and to London Technology Week every June.
-Sharing thoughts and best practices around Austin’s fabled contrarian history (slogan: Keep Austin Weird) of being an “island of blue in a sea of red” in its surrounding Texas environs, just as London now finds itself to be in the U.K.’s post-Brexit world.
