Innovation is becoming ever more important as many are seeking new ideas for how services and business can be improved. One of our aims is to create a link, or bridge, between established business and the new innovator and entrepreneur. On this basis, we are delighted to announce the launch of the EP Accelerator Programme.

This new programme is for entrepreneurs needing help to improve their pitch deck and then access to trusted investors in order to launch or scale their product or service.

The EP Accelerator programme is a short, high paced programme designed to help selected entrepreneurs become fully 'pitch ready' through a series of three, onsite collaborative workshop sessions. Successful graduates from the programme will be invited to present at an Entrepreneur's Pitch Event, which will also be attended by selected investors with combined investment funds of circa £40m.

The EP Accelerator programme naturally sits at the heart of the Hospitality industry, however applications are open for any entrepreneur who has a product or service for any sector, that needs launching or scaling up funds.

EP is delighted to be working alongside Mike Day, the Director of the EP Accelerator Programme, who is a serial entrepreneur himself and has at his disposal, a cohort of industry veterans, specialists, NED's & advisors.

Following each programme and pitch event, all participants are encouraged to join the EP Entrepreneurs Accelerator Alumni Community which will provide ongoing support and events.

The dates for the first EP Accelerator programme:

  • Thursday 26th of October - The first half day session
  • Thursday 2nd of November - The second half day session
  • Thursday 9th of November - The third half day session
  • Tuesday 21st of November - EP pitch event

If you have or know of someone, who has a product or service that needs funds to launch, or needs scale up funding, then contact izzy.mchattie@epmagazine.co.uk for an application form to fill out.
