It aims to help other start-ups launch and grow. Pop Up World is a one-stop shop for start-ups.<\/p>\n<p>Jules says, \u201cIf you want to watch a movie you may go to Netflix. If you want to buy a book you would go to Amazon. But where do you go if you are launching a start-up? The answer is Pop Up World. We offer services that start-ups need to launch and grow from company formation to a commercial space finder to business advice and even an AI you can talk to and ask business questions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Battling superheroes and launching a business is super hard and not recommended for the faint-hearted. Jules adds, \u201cYes, running a start-up is difficult, we are hoping to lighten that load, with our service and are looking to enter the US market\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He has certainly chosen the right place. TechDay Los Angeles opens its doors on the 26th of September 2019 at The Reef, 1933 S Broadway, Los Angeles, CA 90007, 10 a.m.-5 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>The event will host some key sponsors from Amazon Web Services, to Uber and 250 super-exciting tech start-ups will exhibit.<\/p>\n<p>To attend TechDay go to: <a href=\"https:\/\/techdayhq.com\/los-angeles\/register#attend\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/techdayhq.com\/los-angeles\/register#attend<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For more info on Pop Up World\u00ae<br \/>\nContact <a href=\"mailto:info@popupworld.co.uk\">info@popupworld.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Visit online: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.popupworld.co.uk\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.popupworld.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOS ANGELES, Calif., Sept. 19, 2019 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; We all know launching a start-up is hard but British entrepreneur, Graham Jules of Pop Up World(R) London bit off more than he could chew.
