Support you can get

The WeVenture suite of programmes offers supportive, structured guidance to help women researchers explore and grow the commercial potential of their work.

There are three different strands to the programme:

1. Capability Building (consists of Ideas and Opportunities; Resources and Into Action programmes)
2. Ideation
3. Pre-Commercialisation

Through expert-led training, tailored mentoring, engaging masterclass series', workshops and one-to-ones, as well as having access to a welcoming community of peers and partners, participants will build the skills, confidence and tools to turn research ideas into real world ventures.

Whether you’re curious, just getting started, or already further along, WeVenture will support you at every step.
