Make the world better
Create environmental change or make a social impact with your startup.

Launch your entrepreneurial idea that could create impact and make a change.
You don’t need any experience, everyone is welcome, no matter what you’re studying. Whether you don’t have a clue where to start or you have too many ideas to choose from. Try entrepreneurship with purpose.
We offer a calendar packed full of events, competitions with cash-prizes and programmes with structured support. Meet a business adviser, find funding and meet like-minded peers in our thriving entrepreneurial community.
While you can dive in at any point below are some suggestions for the best starting point.
Join us as we plant trees to celebrate the record-breaking 105 student startups that formed last academic year. We're teaming up with our colleagues in Sports & Exercise Science with their annual 'Big Dig' taking place on Wednesday 26th April at Easter Bush Campus.
This support programme is designed to empower those student entrepreneurs who identify as female to succeed. Hear from inspiring guest speakers at the monthly meet-ups alongside this network of supportive women. (You do not need an idea or any experience for this event).
Enter your sustainable enterprise idea for a chance to win £1,000! All you have to do is describe your idea, tell us what makes it special, what stage you’re at and who are the potential customers. It’s that simple. Now closed.
Come with, or without a business or social enterprise idea, join a team and startup over a weekend. This high-energy weekend will give you a fast-track experience of turning your ideas into reality. Learn how to test your ideas and have a go at starting up. (You do not need an idea or any experience for this event). Will return in October 2023.
