Slaughter and May has chosen the first five startups it will provide free legal advice to under its new programme to identify and support some of the UK’s most promising tech entrepreneurs. By Miles is one of those companies.
Each company is set to receive £30,000 in free services including legal advice, access to model legal documentation and tailored coaching in areas such as pitching and presentations.
The companies were selected by a panel led by Slaughter and May’s technology and outsourcing head Rob Sumroy and financial services partner Ben Kingsley, alongside Autonomy co-founder Mike Lynch, Santander UK head of innovation Sigga Sigurdardottir, DeepMind Technologies GC Trevor Callaghan, LocalGlobe partner Ophelia Brown and Peter Cullum, the founder of the Peter Cullum Centre for Entrepreneurship at Cass Business School.
