The 2017 edition of Northern Stars kicks off in Leeds on Thursday 14 September, with the inaugural event of this year’s competition due to set the bar very high.
With less than a week to go, we’re excited to announce the 10 tech startups due to pitch in front of a capacity crowd of investors, press and tech industry peers.
