Digital Mission to New York 2013: What's Happening, More Companies and Deadline Approaches

Back in December we announced the first set of companies that will be joining us for the Digital Mission to New York in February this year. 

We are very excited to not only let you know the next lucky group of companies coming along on the trip, but also to let you take a sneaky peak at the mission agenda. 

With an investor roundtable, masterclass in doing business in the USA, a traditional British pub quiz as well as all the keynotes, showcases and presentations that are being held as part of Social Media Week NYC the mission companies are not going to be short on events to go to and people to meet. You can take a look at the full agenda for the week here.

Over the festive period we have been busily confirming the next group of companies that will be joining the mission group for this jam-packed week, you can check them out below.

There are now a very limited amount of spaces left for the trip, if you want to be one of the lucky ones that come along, you can still apply - but only for the next 2 weeks. The deadline for applications is 6pm on Friday 18th January. Also, don't forget if you are a London based firm wanting to come along, UKTI London have up to 20 grants of £500 available as a contribution towards the trip.
