"At the risk of sounding clichéd, the best time to start a business is now. If you have an idea, what’s the point in just sitting thinking about it? Get out and speak to people about it, get their feedback, take their suggestions on board and start to form a business model."
Ruth Crozier, Founder of Silverlion Innovations
“The grant funding I gained from Strathclyde allowed me to prove the concept of my idea and provided a spring board to making my idea a reality.”
Dr Mohammed Al Qaraghuli, Founder of SiMologics
“I was provided with great business training and was exposed to business advisors and like-minded innovators, which ultimately enhanced my company’s intellectual property.”
Ana Galitsyna & Irina Protasova, Founders of NoFrames
“As international students applying for the Start-Up Visa, we needed to prove the need for both our business and unique talents in Scotland. The guidance from Strathclyde during the process was second to none. Pitching practice, training workshops, one-to-one advice – it set us up for success.”
