Founder Success: Driving founders forward

Our Founder Success programme is the place where founders come together to try to break through their most important scaling challenges. It offers our Early-Stage Banking clients access to events and insights designed to help founders unlock answers to critical scaling challenges. 

What makes Founder Success different?

  • No fluff, nothing generic. The Founder Success programme gives you commercial and go-to-market, operations, and fundraising insights, every single quarter. Everything we do is designed to give you guidance on growing revenue, securing investment, and structuring your business to prepare for scale.

  • Discuss and debate scaling challenges alongside your peers and UK tech sector founders, investors and operators. Need a follow-up conversation? Our team can point you in the right direction.

  • Hear from experienced founders, investors and operators, as well as expert tech lawyers, accountants and other service providers. Dig deep into the issues that matter most in high-growth startups.

  • No minimum time commitment: just curated sessions and insights that give you lessons you can apply in your company right away. Engage on your terms - sign up to as much or as little as you want.

What attendees say

Upcoming event: Raising a seed - the Unfiltered Truth

In collaboration with Novabook, this event brings together founders who’ve raised a Seed round to share what really went down: the ghosting, the endless “maybes,” the unexpected wins, the questions that made no sense, and the funds they’d happily never pitch again.
