Priority will be given to current Partners on the TBAT Innovation Ltd Partner Referral Scheme, and their clients, as well as Forresters IP Clients. Spaces are limited, therefore booking is essential. Maximum of 1 ticket per organisation due to demand.

We are inviting Partners to take a 90-second pitch slot – selected Partners will be advised prior to the event. If you are interested in pitching, please email jor@tbat.co.uk.

If you are not currently a TBAT Innovation Partner, please get in touch, if you’d like to be considered to attend.
