5.9% of UK school children attend private school yet 71% of partners at UK VC funds attended private school and 46% of UK educated tech CEOs attended private school. Lack of network, confidence and a financial safety net deters too many talented people from achieving their potential.
State School Ventures is a free, 12-week programme for people wishing to start a tech startup. At SSV we help take you from idea to launch and funding; but you must have attended a UK State School
State School Ventures
State School Ventures is FREE and delivered remotely. No application or membership costs, or relocation expenses. No waiting, a new cohort starts every month and you can begin at whatever month you want.
An “idea to launch” programme
Solo founder? Co founder? Doesn’t matter. The 12 week State School Ventures programme will help you refine your idea, develop a plan and launch your business.
Funding
You shouldn’t apply to SSV *just* to get funding but the programme will bring you into contact with funding knowledge and advice. It’s anticipated that some applicants will receive offers of funding via the programme.
