2016 Winner – Will Bell, Technical Director
Nearcut Limited
Salter’s Den turned out to be the best decision of my journey as a start-up. The advice I received during my presentation was invaluable and the support that I got after, and continue to receive to this day helped me take my business to the next level. If you are considering entering the competition I would strongly recommend it, you have nothing to lose but your limitations.’
