LAUNCHPAD XLR8
UK LAUNCHPAD FOR STARTUPS
This program is specifically designed to help you successfully launch your tech in the UK and open your first sales opportunities.
So far our team has been supporting mostly scaleups and well-established companies in their UK launches.
In response to an increasing number of enquiries and interest in the UK market from startups, we have rolled out LaunchPadXLR8, a program aimed at providing early market access and penetration for companies in their early stages to help them connect with the UK market and the global ecosystem.
We carefully select each cohort of a maximum of 8 companies so that there are a variety of solutions in each and no two solutions or products are the same.
The hybrid programme will run 3 times a year and successful applicants will undergo an intense 7 weeks of mentoring sessions, mastermind groups, roundtable discussions, connector sessions, and pitch events during their final week in the UK.

For this reason, we launched LaunchpadXR8.
The main focus of our accelerator program, unlike many others, is to specifically help you establish the first partnerships in the UK and open sales channels once your solution or product is market-ready.
The LaunchpadXR8 is delivered and supported by Open Solutions' high-level executives and industry experts as well as a network of partners and strategic organisations.
