Sifted Summit

Sifted Summit was launched to bring together key audiences in the European startup ecosystem, live and under the Sifted brand. Grew the event from its humble 300 attendee beginnings to a 3000 attendee showstopper, producing 3 editions across 2021 to 2023.

Sifted Summit v.1.0
Theme: No VCs, No Bullshit
Date: 8 December 2021
Location: Illuminate at Science Museum, London

"Sifted offers a truly unique value proposition. Their events always bring together the best and brightest minds in the ecosystem and dissect themes in non-traditional and innovative ways, which makes it my go-to for happenings and developments in the tech space."
- Keji Mustapha, CMO, Partech

Built brand USPs, storyline, straplines and event themes from scratch i.e. "Sifted is moving from the page to the stage" and "where startups make headlines."

Mood board for Sifted Summit v. 2.0

"I had such a great time at the Sifted Summit last week. Very honoured to have had the opportunity to speak about everything myself and my team are doing at Jennis to create positive change in the womens health space."
- Jessica Ennis, Olympian champion and founder, Jennis

"The Sifted Summit really did feel like the place to be. A not to be missed event that helps you keep your finger well and truly on the pulse of what's happening in the UK startup scene - which is more vital than ever in such a challenging macro-economic environment."
- Tessa Clarke, CEO and cofounder, Olio
