TEA - Tech Executive Accelerator London

TEA 2025 is aimed at technology-based growth companies that use artificial intelligence (AI) to transform how we live and work – and that have significant potential in global markets.

We are looking for companies that have

• a market-validated product – the solution is fully developed and has demonstrated value
• capital in place – basic liquidity is secured, and growth capital has been raised or is being raised
• growing revenue – the company is generating revenue, including from international markets
• a scalable model – a software- or data-driven business model (B2B) designed for growth in new markets
• a strong team – global ambitions backed by key people with the experience and capacity to deliver

We are looking for you if you

• are a founder, CEO or have strategic responsibility within the company
• want to open doors to global tech ecosystems
• are motivated to build networks, explore new opportunities and accelerate growth

Opportunities for larger companies

The programme is also open to larger companies where collaboration creates mutual value, such as access to networks, knowledge sharing and joint strategic opportunities. Get in touch to find out more.

You gain access to tools, advisory, networks and knowledge that can help you position your business strategically and accelerate international growth. Your company becomes a member of Level39, one of Europe's leading tech incubators in Canary Wharf. This includes access to hot-desking facilities and networks.

Through workshops in London with international mentors, the companies explore topics including:

Strategic positioning

How can your business use communication and storytelling strategically to position itself in different markets? Communicating your growth ambitions can be crucial to positioning your company strategically in international markets. You will learn how to tailor your message to different audiences and be challenged to communicate in an engaging and credible way. You will leave with practical tools and a focused message you can use when engaging with different stakeholders.

Scaling models

You will be challenged to define clear growth targets and develop strategies and action plans tailored to your company's growth ambitions. You will leave with a plan for testing and refining your company's strategies to achieve its growth targets.

Strategic partnerships

In this session, we challenge you to build, maintain and develop partnerships. You will learn how to assess and identify potential partners for your business. The goal is for you to leave with a plan for building strong, profitable strategic partnerships that can help accelerate growth.
