Steve Ewing, director of operations at Informatics Ventures, said: “We’re committed to supporting Scotland’s most exciting technology companies and, above all, to help founding teams make the connections that transform their chances of success on the international stage.”
Smillie added: “Support for new start-ups is essential and Steve Ewing and the team have been a fantastic support in this arena.”
NOAH Berlin, which runs from 22 to 23 June, will see start-ups from across Europe pitch to leading tech investors.
