Access Should Never Be the Barrier

Programme fees: £1500 per business team (maximum 2 delegates)

Here's our commitment: No talented founder will be turned away due to financial constraints.

Founders can spend £10,000+ on consultants or give up unnecessary equity - all because they lacked systematic fundraising knowledge. That's absurd. Founders who need fundraising help the most are the ones who can least afford expensive education. It's a broken system that perpetuates inequality in the startup ecosystem.

We're fixing this.

The Fundraising 101 Scholarship Programme

How it works:

  1. Generous supporters (individuals and companies) contribute from £10/month

  2. These contributions directly fund scholarships for founders in need

  3. Supported founders get the same world-class education as everyone else

  4. 100% of contributions go directly to supporting founders

You can be part of this. Every contribution - from £10 to £500+ per month - transforms a founder's ability to raise capital successfully.
