Founders For Future - Workshops
Channel: StirToAction
Date: 2022-02-07

Do you think that Devon’s economy could be fairer? Do you think that running a business with others is better than going it alone? Do you have an idea for a new business that will benefit Devon’s local food sector, housing, or wellbeing in your community?

Founders for the Future is a free startup programme for young adults in Devon: a new business incubator working with 15 young adults in Devon – aged between 18-30 years old – supporting them to create new enterprise ideas that secure a sustainable future for Devon’s local economy.

We will support participants to set up their own enterprises with others, through workshops, residentials, 1:2:1 business consultancy, study visits, market development, a business fair, and up to £1,000 startup grant (money you don't have to pay back).

More than just a business start up programme, the three-month programme puts young adults at the heart of economic development by focusing on building a business based on collaboration and democracy through co-operative and community business models.

Apply by 21 February. Applications for Founders for the Future are now open. Follow the link below to the application on the Devon Social Entrepreneurs Programme website.
