What we look for.

Three traits, one mission
/01 · Skills

Real, transferable expertise.

Marketing, finance, product, ops, hospitality, retail, tech. Whatever you've shipped in your own career — we want it in the room with our founders.

/02 · Time

An honest commitment.

Whether it's a one-off workshop or a 12-week mentoring slot. We'd rather have two reliable hours than five erratic ones — say what you can give.

/03 · Values

You believe in the work.

You think young Londoners deserve a fair shot at starting a business. You're comfortable being honest, kind, and clear with people figuring it out.

"Facilitating workshops has been an incredible way to share my expertise and inspire young entrepreneurs. It's rewarding to see them grow and to develop my own skills in the process." Sarah · Marketing Consultant

/03 · Corporate partnership

Bring your whole team.

If you'd like your company involved — CSR days, judges for Demo Day, in-kind support — that's our Collaborate route.
