London Calling

'Allo 'Allo 👋🏼

If you’re joining an episode of Startup Life for the first time, then grab yourself a cuppa and please mind the gap ☕️

In this episode the cobwebs were dusted off the red double decker bus in the garage and we hit the frog and toad 🐸

For yet another stop on the Surfly Grand Tour 🌍

Together with the trusted companions Thomas (Clarkson) and Freek (May), the three amigos put on our best attire and set off from Amsterdam to a galaxy not so far, far away 🌌

In fact, it’s a city! That:

speaks over 300 languages 🗣
is home to the smallest statue in the world 🗽
has the most billionaires on earth 💰
has more Indian restaurants than Mumbai 🇮🇳
whose name derives from being BOLD 📣

Any guesses? Why it was back to my good ol' stomping ground, the Big Smoke AKA London Town 🇬🇧

Having been to the Call & Contact Centre Expo several times in the past, I have always met so many interesting people and it's always a blast 💥

So this year, we decided to invest some bees and honey and be an official sponsor 🐝

When not in the rubbity-dub, the three amigos have been hard at work choreographing our best moves to show off at our Booth CC-I65 👯‍♀️

65% of us are visual thinkers, there’s a rise in preference for visual channels, the dog and bone is yesteryear and empowering super agents to solve complex problems has never been more important 🦸🏻‍♀️

Renowned analysts, Frost & Sullivan have recognised Surfly as a Leader in Visual Engagement and you can download your free report (worth over £2,100) here 🆓

We had lots of good ol' fashioned in-person chit-chats and turkish baths 😂

And gave away a tonne of cool swag and of course tasty Dutch stroopwafels 🍪

We treated our partner RingCentral to a fun evening at the Sports Bar & Grill at Canary Wharf to watch Australia vs France in the World Cup 🍻

The next evening, we even randomly bumped into my old Apigee (now Google) crew and some other friends at Goldwood Pub at Bank ❤️
