When you’re running a business, time is money and few business owners can afford to stand still. If you run a business which is moderately successful, you will be seeking to scale and build out an effective post-revenue growth strategy.
QAccelerator is a new two-week programme designed to support growing businesses in scaling their ventures. The intensive summer school combines business training, expert support and coaching to help you accelerate your venture's success. The 2019 programme took place from 15th - 26th July 2019.
Over the last five years, QEnterprise has supported over 2,000 students and graduates in starting, growing and scaling new ventures. We have designed this growth programme based on insights gained from delivery of QIncubator - our 8-week programme designed to support early stage ventures. 120 founders have graduated from QIncubator since 2018.
QAccelerator is sponsored by Santander Universities. The Santander Universities Division continues to support and manage Santander's commitment to higher education. This is a long-term, strategic alliance with universities that benefits students and university staff in the communities where Santander is present.
