Pitch @ Palace Bootcamp

On the 25th of March HRH The Duke of York attended the Pitch@Palace Bootcamp at Google Campus in London.

Pitch@Palace is an initiative to provide a platform for entrepreneurs to engage with potential supporters including angels, mentors or key business contacts, assisting these start-ups and promoting entrepreneurship in general.
