Spotlight on Startups

In addition to the dating conference, GDI is very excited to be launching our very first startup competition – Spotlight on Startups.

Spotlight on Startups, which is free to enter, will see the most exciting and innovative dating startups battle each other to be named the GDI Spotlight winner.
