Web Summit Comes to Manchester as Part of European Tech Crawl

Alibi, Manchester, 2nd July

The creators of the Dublin Web Summit and F.ounders are to host a ‘pub summit’ in Manchester on July 2nd in Alibi, Oxford Street, Manchester. The event is part of the European Tech Crawl which is holding networking events for techies, entrepreneurs, investors and the start-up communities of twenty two cities across Europe this June and July.

Attendees at the Manchester event include representatives from Techcelerate, The Next Web and Rentlord, as well as other start-ups, incubators, investors and entrepreneurs.

To date, the Tech Crawl has registered over 9,000 attendees for all events and their founder, Paddy Cosgrave, is hoping to attract over 10,000 by the tour’s end. The first event began on Monday 18 June in London with over 1,500 attendees filling three venues in Whitechapel, London.

The purpose of the events is to raise awareness of the Dublin Web Summit which will be held in October of this year. Mr Cosgrave plans for the Summit to be the biggest Tech event in Europe in 2012.

“At the Web Summit we’re looking for the next big thing, the next Ebay, the next Twitter, the next Facebook…” says Mr Cosgrave.

The Manchester Pub Summit will bring members of the tech, web and start-up communities together to network and give them a taste of what’s available to them at the Dublin Web Summit later on in the year.
