We're on the lookout for founders who have built their MVP or have an early product on the market; we're looking to see that you've spotted an opportunity in you industry and have the data, market insight and understanding to back it up
We're looking for start ups with diverse founding teams - at least one of your founders is underrepresented in the industry: BAME, LGBTQ, non-higher educated, retired, female
We're looking for next gen creators and disruptors of the beauty industry with a tech-enabled product or solution; maybe this is an innovation-led product or a solution for e-commerce
