The London Stock Exchange is a globally recognised symbol of the UK’s position as a world-leading financial and business centre. Synonymous with London's unique history as a home to domestic and international business, the ceremony reflects the expertise and breadth of the London markets.
The Market Open Ceremony signals the start of London trading, and it's our turn to ring the bell.
Boardwave exists to bring Europe's most ambitious software leaders together, working towards a ten-year mission to make Europe the world's leading technology powerhouse by 2033. The UK has always been pivotal in achieving this, being called 'home' for a disproportionate number of the continent's tech companies, with deep capital markets and a pool of founders and investors who've built and backed some of Europe's most significant exits.
The Market Open Ceremony provides an opportunity to bring the Boardwave community together and celebrate our respective roles and contributions to not only the UK, but also Europe's rising tech ecosystem, marking just how far we've come and gearing up for what comes next.
Few stages capture that ambition better than the trading floor of the London Stock Exchange; the place where UK business meets global capital, and a gateway for so many Boardwave companies in the years ahead.
Guests will be welcomed at the Exchange before joining the balcony for the countdown itself, watching the market officially open at 8am. From there, the morning continues with speeches and a presentation to mark the occasion, over a light breakfast.
A morning that celebrates what the UK has built, and its place at the heart of Europe's tech story.
