The Venture Builder Incubator is a curated hybrid programme of interactive, online workshops and events designed to provide postgraduate students and research staff with the skills, knowledge and networks to validate the commercial potential of data-driven ideas and innovations.
We are looking to work with motivated individuals and teams eager to test their ideas that address real world challenges by using digital technology.
The programme offers the opportunity to be at the heart of a vibrant community and to develop life-long professional and entrepreneurial skills.
And more!
We encourage applications from postgraduate students and researchers from the University of Edinburgh. Masters’ students, and recent alumni with innovative ideas, are also welcome to apply. Please get in touch if you have any queries.
While the programme is open to all sectors*, we provide tailored support for health and robotics projects.
As part of our partnership with Cancer Research Horizons, we welcome applications from researchers working in this area across the UK.
*Projects coming from the University of Edinburgh can be related to a wide number of industries but we are particularly interested in:
Cancer Research Horizons is the innovation engine of Cancer Research UK, the world’s largest independent cancer research organisation. It was launched to take cutting edge innovations from the lab bench to the bedside and translate them into effective treatments and diagnostics for cancer patients.
