🚆 Future Labs officially wrapped up two weeks ago with an incredible Future Labs Expo! 🚆 The event brought together all nine participating startups, alongside guests, mentors, and representatives from London North Eastern Railway, TransPennine Express, Southeastern Railway, and Northern. The Expo featured inspiring startup presentations and two thought-provoking panel discussions: 🔹 The first panel explored innovation in rail, featuring Managing Directors and Commercial Directors from leading train operating companies. 🔹 The second panel tackled accessibility in rail, with insights from Disability Advocate Dr Amy Kavanagh and accessibility leaders from Southeastern and TransPennine Express. It was a fantastic day showcasing how collaboration and innovation are shaping the future of rail. 🚄 Learn more about Future Labs here >>> https://lnkd.in/eVfZFizS #Innovation #FutureLabs #RailIndustry #Accessibility

Warning: this is an advert. Also, this is a personal view on how #incubators and #accelerators benefit #startups and startup founders. I'll start with the obvious. Founders work can be lonesome. The support of others in similar situations or the ones that have done it before is invaluable. This is actually quite a universal rule of human life. Don't be alone, get support from others in similar situations. Oh... you do get to help them out as well. The more intricate issue here is that the support and network is more than just helping with the business. At best it can be collegial and you can even make friends. Therefore - as a personal opinion - you get a lot more out of being a part of an incubator or accelerator that has face to face meetings and a space you can share with your peers. I will do a series of these as we have a call open Urban Tech Helsinki. If you are a startup that would benefit from connections to for example #cities or other stakeholders such as universities, have a look and apply throug our website. https://lnkd.in/dwnNStBd
