Looking beyond the achievements of NEF+ cohorts and alumni, we recognised that a key factor in supporting startup businesses was the ability to leverage our network of supporters and connect them with founders – for advice, connections and investment.
We’ve found that the most effective way to do this is by holding a large-scale exhibition event, which brings NEF+ ventures together with our wider community – ‘NEF Live.’
Our 2019 event was held in January and saw 60 early-stage ventures exhibit to an audience of over 400 attendees. Alongside the main exhibition, 12 founders pitched to an audience of investors and supporters.
NEF Live is now an annual fixture in our events schedule – with a growing community of alumni founders, the next event will be bigger, bolder and more exciting.

Highlights from past events
In January 2019, NEF welcomed nearly 400 guests and exhibitors to NEF Live 2019.
The venue was the Guildhall’s historic Old Library and Print Room, in the heart of the City of London, where 60 NEF alumni-founded businesses exhibited, alongside 16 quick-fire pitches, to a standing-room-only audience.
This was NEF’s biggest and best event to date and was a showcase for the achievements of all our NEFers across all our cohorts.
