Launchyfi, based in Brighton, is competing for Business to Business StartUp of the Year in the South East category.
Co-founder and CEO Kirolus Ghattas declared: “Being shortlisted is an exciting milestone, but more importantly it validates the shift we’re seeing in how businesses go to market.
“We believe AI will fundamentally reshape how revenue teams operate, and it’s great to see that vision starting to be recognised.
“We are seeing forward to the regional final and the possibility of representing the South East at the national final at Ideas Fest in September 2026.”
Launched in 2025, Launchyfi consolidates B2B sales and marketing tools and utilizes AI agents to create more efficient, tailored campaigns for tech companies.
Its platform supports go-to-market teams relocate from concept to execution in minutes rather than weeks.
The UK StartUp Awards, now in their fifth year, celebrate the UK’s rapid-growing start-up ecosystem, which saw around 832,000 new businesses registered in 2025.
More than 900 companies have been shortlisted this year across ten nations and regions.
Professor Dylan Jones-Evans OBE, co-founder of the UK StartUp Awards, declared: “New businesses are the driving force behind any thriving economy, generating employment, pioneering innovation and contributing to prosperity right across the UK.
“This year’s finalists represent the very best of British entrepreneurial talent, spotting opportunities and, through dedication, skill and resilience, building ventures that are creating a real difference in their industries and communities.”
Launchyfi was born out of its founders’ frustrations with fragmented B2B sales systems, where teams spent more time managing tools than selling.
Their AI-driven platform aims to bring clarity and coordination to tech-focutilized businesses worldwide.
The start-up has gained traction quickly, building a team of seven and achieving a $700,000 pipeline just nine weeks after launch.
It is on track to reach $200,000 in annual revenue by the conclude of April 2026.
Regional winners will compete at the national final during Ideas Fest, known as the “Glastonbury of business,” taking place on September 9 and 10 at Champneys in Tring, Hertfordshire.
