State School Shout Out
Today I’m pleased to launch my talent accelerator - State School Ventures.
Why State School Ventures?
Statistically UK private schools are a huge success story; in culture, in the arts and in entrepreneurship;
I believe that many of the privileges that private school educated people enjoy (eg confidence, network, time and money) can be provided to any talented person;
Given that less than 6% of children attend private school, the UK would benefit if the other 94% had more access to these privileges.
State School Ventures is a 8 week programme for people wishing to start a company. SSV will help take you from idea to launch and funding.
Asks: if you would like to support me on this mission, please do one (or more!) of the following:
Applicants - if you know of a talented person with some deep understanding of a problem that could benefit from the programme please share far and wide;
Advisors - if you would like to join the mission and support ambitious talented people (or even just support me) then let me know;
Funding - if you would like to support the initiative to reach more people and accelerate outcomes then let me know. Ultimately I would like to have an SSV hub in every major conurbation of the UK.
I believe founding a startup is the hardest occupation someone can do aside parenting and the military. SSV is here to make it easier for folk without existing money and network.
Meet SSV ✨
