It does not matter whether you
have a
startup idea
don't have a startup idea
whether you are enrolled in your
Bachelor
Masters
PhD
What matters is only that you're a
relentlessly ambitious outlier
Only top 4% of 1000+ applications are selected
Why kickstart?
Our trailblazing programme, recognised by companies including Microsoft Ventures, KPMG, Google, Deloitte Ventures, and Sequoia Capital, has produced 75 startups and facilitated £5 million in funding to founders all under 24.
Community of co-founders
From different disciplines for developing the idea effectively
Looking for a technical, creative, or commercial co-founder from your university circle is hard. If you are yearning for a community of entrepreneurial talents with relentless ambition, drive to build something from scratch, and the skills to succeed— it's even harder.
Find others just like yourself with complementary competencies from diverse disciplines. Perhaps even better.
We choose the top 0.03% of talent to guarantee a strong team — only 30 applicants are chosen from 1000+ applicants after a rigorous application process.
exclusive network
From industry leaders, founders and investors in the UK startup ecosystem
Tailored guidance from industry leaders, founders of multi-million dollar companies and investors from leading VCs is impossible to find. You could attend events with these high profile speakers, but are they really going to remember you from sitting in the audience?
We're helping you not just listen to, but build relationships with these visionary. Pick their brains, and leave a lasting impression —one that inspires them to share your story with others.
Interact with the likes of:
• Co-founder of OakNorth
• CTO of BBC
• CEO of Octopu Group
• Partner at Sequoia
• Gen AI head at WhatsApp
roadmap to the unventured
From day 0 now everything you need to build a successful startup
There's no one set direction to follow when it comes to building a start up — there's limited consensus on the best way to do things: the biggest killer of early start ups is the lack of foresight on best decisions.
You will get all the equipment you need: torches, maps, and a compass. A clear strategy and step-by-step guide to build a world-class venture.  Perhaps the next unicorn.
We have a curriculum inspired from Y Combinator, Techstars and Buildspace — leading accelerators and builders.
