Calling European Startups! Less Than Two Weeks Left To Apply For The Battlefield At Disrupt NY
Summary
Less Than Two Weeks Left To Apply For The Battlefield At Disrupt NY Over the last couple of years, startups from Europe looking to scale in the U.S. have had another ‘planet’ hover into their horizon other than San Francisco – and that’s been New York. As I wrote in 2012, increasingly, New York’s burgeoning tech scene has made it more attractive for certain types of European companies to make it their beachhead into the U.S. Here’s a quick list I made of European startups that have made New York their U.S. base: Spotify, Klarna, Hailo, Skimlinks, OpenGamma, CognitiveMatch, Brandwatch, Mendeley, Onefinestay, Erply, Logentries,musiXmatch, Zemanta Qriously, Upptalk, Shapeways, Yourkarma, Bloglovin, Conversocial, struq, TicTail, Lulu, wireWAX, Versus, Criteo, Dashlane, YPlan, Trustpilot, Widespace, Videoplaza, Sticky, X5 Music, Soundrop, Fanduel, Blippar, Campalyst, StrikeAd, DailySecret, Aframe, Trustev, Wonderloop and Redkite to name just a few. Its large immigrant pool allows newly arrived companies to find cultural similarities between their home countries and groups within NYC. In selecting final contestants, we will give heavy preference to companies that launch for the first time to the public and press at TechCrunch Disrupt. If you’re choosing between launch platforms and need an early decision, please apply and email us at battlefield@beta.techcrunch.com and we’ll priority review your application.
