the bristol setsquared centre
London
We exist to help tech founders who want to have an impact in the world. We
incubate tech startups – helping them transition from where they are now to
where they need to be. Through coaching and training, workspace and a vibrant
network of advisers and investors - we offer early-stage entrepreneurs
everything they need to enjoy high economic growth while delivering real impact.
Changing the world from Bristol We grow global businesses from our base in
Bristol – the spirited, independently-minded, connected city we call home. In
fact, we were born out of the University of Bristol and their desire to see
innovative thinking succeed. Put simply, we’ve got good roots that you can tap
into. Putting founders first No two startups are the same. It’s why helping them
develop is so exciting. And why it makes sense to approach every incubation with
fresh eyes. We totally tailor our support because fixed timelines and premade
processes don’t spell success to us. Our members enjoy bespoke advice crafted
around their ambitions. And our approach works. We’ve been named Europe’s
Hottest Accelerator and Global No 1 University Incubator – having already helped
over 300 companies, in 27 sectors, thrive. Brilliant companies that have seen
over half a billion pounds in investment. In fact, our members are 4 times more
likely to succeed than the average UK startup. Saying no to barriers We’re no
fan of boundaries, and truly believe that tech should be accessible. As long as
you have a brilliant tech idea and big ambitions we’re interested. Right now,
45% of our member founders are women and 23% are from a BAME background. And we
continue to run inclusion programmes, like our Breakthrough Bursary and
Enterprising Women initiatives, to ensure our sector is truly representative.
Our history SETsquared Bristol has been around since 2002, supporting hundreds
of promising startups. We’re part of the University of Bristol and the
SETsquared Partnership which means we can offer our membership packages at
heavily discounted rates and tap into a vast array of resources and benefits for
you if you join us. Read about our partners. We’re looking for ambitious
startups to incubate today - taking the best from all tech sectors, whatever
stage you’re at, wherever you’re based in the UK. So, if you want to have a real
impact in the world, let's talk.
