Details.
A mentoring service for Imperial students, alumni and staff who are ready to move from idea development to business launch. Participants receive up to three mentors who work as a team, providing guidance, experience and access to networks. Support can include refining a prototype product or service, finding target markets, securing funding and growing the business. Sessions are confidential and the mentoring format and duration depend on the participant and mentoring team. Eligibility requirements include sufficient customer research, responsiveness to coaching, evidence of ambition, a plan to work full-time when needed and, for Imperial staff, commercialisation office approval.
