About this Event
TEKEX is back in the Isle of Man, this time to identify global innovations that could become valuable Isle of Man opportunities, then connect each one with the local investment, partners and decision-makers required to launch it.
Speakers include Jason Bissell, exited founder now entrepreneur, speaking on accelerating island economies and why the moment is now. Also hear from Mark Sutcliffe on connecting ambitious innovation with agile jurisdictions in his speech, 'The Billion Dollar Exit.'
We're bringing three businesses to the Island. Each has built something genuinely interesting and they've done the work to understand what it could mean specifically for the Isle of Man.
Those businesses include:
iO-CO represented by Josh Dawkins
Pupil Power represented by Claire Owen
Lusyi represented by Will Tinney
After the pitches, the IoD, Chamber of Commerce, Digital Isle of Man, UNESCO Biosphere and TEKEX Isle of Man sit together to address one question: How can the Island move these conversations forward?
If you're an investor, a business owner, someone in government, or someone who could genuinely help one of these businesses land here - register, attend, ask questions, tell us where you fit and be a part of this innovative movement.
TEKEX connects ambition with capital, expertise, and opportunity across the Crown Dependencies.
