What our spinout customers say:
This programme is a must for every founder when transitioning from academia into business. It gives you the necessary tools to understand the marketing mechanics, and how to succeed in commercializing your technology. I gained so much confidence after this programme that I attribute the successful engagement with new clients (and closing of deals) thanks to the learning gained during the programme.
Juan Pablo Echenique
CEO & Co-founder, Reoptimize Systems (closed £125K new sales during programme)
Kickstart was specific, evidenced, methodical, and bound the participants in actions that delivered results.
The application of the learnings made us investible, and the marketing strategy it has helped us construct is already delivering results.

Sterghios Moschos

I would recommend this programme because it's been an absolutely fantastic opportunity for us to learn very quickly how modern digital marketing works and how to quickly build a targeted sales pipeline to get to customers, not wasting loads of resources, trying 10 different things, but having that brilliant, fantastic structure to follow.
