Develop your idea

What do you do with an idea?

Poke it. Lift it up to see what's underneath. Squish it. Throw it in the air. Spin it around three times and see what happens next?

Whatever you do with it – we’re here to help. 

You can book an Idea Feedback Session to tell us about your idea and the problem you're keen to solve. We'll then give you feedback and advice about next steps.

The Entrepreneurship Insitute (EI) also run free events, competitions, challenges and programmes throughout the year to help you develop your idea and your entrepreneurial skills. All opportunities offer support and guidance, as well as the chance to meet other entrepreneurs, changemakers and innovators across King's. 

 

 

Where can you take your idea?

Could you pitch an idea in 90-seconds and win £200 to take it further? Open Pitch Night invites you to take to the stage and pitch your bold solution to a problem you’re passionate about solving.
