Welcome to King’s20 Demo Day For almost 200 years, King’s College London has been striving to improve the world. King’s has been bursting with talented innovative and entrepreneurial people since 1829, solving problems and identifying new opportunities.

We are delighted to introduce you to the very best of our early stage, high-potential entrepreneurs selected from amongst the talented students, alumni and staff at King’s College London. Our first cohort includes early-stage ventures from health, technology, consumer products, education and more. 50% of the entrepreneurs are undergraduate, master’s or PhD students at King’s, 40% are recent alumni of King’s and 10% are staff. Our entrepreneurs come from 22 countries and 25% of our founders are female. King’s College London has supported its first cohort of 20 ventures with a full, free programme of acceleration including 200+ hours of mentorship with our Experts in Residence, £99,000 of grants to support scaling, six fully-funded interns and more. Our accelerator is unique in two important ways: i) we focus heavily on the entrepreneur, ahead of their idea, and support their development as leaders.

04 King’s20 accelerator Lookbook July 2017

More than 70% of our entrepreneurs improved their leadership skills during their time with us; and ii) by tracking ventures’ impact on society (through job creation, wealth creation and impact), the programme reflects King’s wider purpose to act ‘in the service of society’.

Entrepreneurial minds at King’s have influenced many of the advances that shape modern life: • the discovery of the structure of DNA • research that led to the development of radio, television, mobile phones and radar.

Our support has helped to move important ideas to the next level where they have clear plans to deliver and to sustain. 75% of them have already raised funding, three of our entrepreneurs have won prestigious external prizes and 20 jobs have been created along with six internships during their time with us. King’s College London has supported the ventures that you will see today completely free of charge; each venture that you see is 100% in control of its own intellectual property.

What will entrepreneurial thinking at King’s produce next? We hope that you enjoy our lookbook and the ventures and entrepreneurs that you will see today. If you like what you see and you would like to support our entrepreneurs, please email Edward.halliday@kcl.ac.uk

King’s College London will continue to develop its support for entrepreneurs and has chosen to place entrepreneurship at the heart of its new business school which launches at Bush House in September 2017.

My very special thanks to the skilled and hard-working team at the Entrepreneurship Institute who always work ‘in the service of society’. Our thanks and very best wishes. Julie Devonshire OBE

Director, The Entrepreneurship Institute

Finding technical talent is expensive, time-consuming and immensely difficult.

More than £7 billion is spent on recruitment fees every year in the UK
