Meet The Class Of 2017! Unruly Hosts Collider’s Annual Demo Day
Unruly opened the doors of its London HQ yesterday to welcome in Collider’s Class of 2017, along with some of the accelerator’s biggest successes, for its annual Demo Day.
The most exciting madtech startups and scale-ups in the UK completed rounds of pitching to investors and senior decision-makers from brands such as Unilever and Microsoft in the hopes of raising both interest and funding.
Good-Loop, an app which incentivises users to watch ads by donating to a charity of their choice once they reach a particular point in the video, was given Collider’s 2017 Demo Day award at the end of the event.
