Boardwave is a little different to most businesses today. The primary goal of our impact-driven business model is to generate positive change in the European software sector. Launched in May 2022, Boardwave is a mission-driven community for leaders in the software sector that has grown rapidly, with over 1,800 members across the UK and European software industry, including founders, CEOs and their investors. Membership for CEOs and founders is offered free of charge, underscoring our commitment to accessible support and development.
Inspired by the collaborative culture of Silicon Valley, which has given rise to many of the world’s most successful software companies, Boardwave seeks to replicate these conditions of success. Our aim is to advance the UK and European software industry, nurturing the next generation of global leaders through a comprehensive support ecosystem. This ecosystem provides access to expertise, knowledge sharing, mentoring, coaching, thought leadership, and personal development. Additionally, Boardwave facilitates access to capital and ensures a unified voice to governments, essential for transformative success.
By 2034, we envision the UK and European software industry evolving from follower to leader, creating numerous successful global entities. Boardwave exists to catalyse this transformation, supported by a consortium of over 80 of the UK and Europe’s top partners and service providers in the software sector.
Boardwave is a mission-driven community for the UK and European software industry, attracting over 1800 members, it is a powerful community, who recognise that we can be more successful together than alone. We think the work they are doing to bring business leaders together in their industry is super interesting and actually a first for this year's Escape 100. They are a not for profit with the aim of sharing knowledge for the greater good of all in their sector. If you're already in the software industry, it's definitely worth checking out their job board and getting involved in one of their events.
