Stephen Coleman OBE, CodeBase CEO, said: “At its heart, Techscaler aims to make Scotland the best place in the world for founders to launch and grow a tech startup. At CodeBase, we’ve been privileged to propel this groundbreaking ecosystem-building programme into existence for the Scottish Government. We can’t wait to build on this foundation in year two.”
Mark Logan OBE FRSE, Chief Entrepreneurial Advisor to the Scottish Government, said: “In its first year of operation, Techscaler has already established itself as a vital part of Scotland’s entrepreneurial support infrastructure, and this is only the beginning. Expect major developments in 2024, as the Techscaler platform continues to consolidate, integrate, and evolve. In the meantime, I commend the CodeBase team for its outstanding progress to date.”
