Welcome to the first edition of Nottingham Startups 2.0.

These founder-led startups are not backed by venture capital. Bootstrapped, grant-funded, pre-seed or angel-backed, the enterprises are in the early stages of their journey and either building or harnessing a unique technology.

We invited nominations from our readers, key figures in Nottingham’s tech scene and an array of incubators, accelerators and co-working spaces.

From air quality assessors to electronic voting systems, HealthTechs, BioTechs and fungal discovery platforms, the city is rich with startup talent.
