The Irish entrepreneurs will be joined by founders from eight other start-ups: Levo League, Retail Tower, Content Fleet, NationBuilder, Qordoba, Citivox, Sponsorhub and Scopely.
Further announcements and surprise guests for START are expected in the coming weeks and the event will be eld alongside the Dublin Web Summit on 17-18 October 2012.
