EP Entrepreneur Network
Our new dedicated company, which supports entrepreneurs from start-up to exit, by bringing together entrepreneurs, mentors, advisors and investors.
As part of this network, you have the opportunity to participate in the EP Accelerator Programme, which is designed to help those needing assistance with improving their pitch deck. It also includes the opportunity to be a part of subsequent pitch events for those seeking funds to elevate their business.
If you are interested in finding out more about either of the above, please do click the button below to enquire.
EP Accelerator, is a natural extension to the series of Entrepreneur’s Pitch events that we have run over the last few years.
We are very fortunate that our position in the hospitality industry constantly guides a great pipeline of entrepreneurs to us, seeking advice and funding for their start-ups and scale up businesses.
The key mission of EP Accelerator is to provide these entrepreneurs with access to relevant funds and investors who are interested in exciting opportunities in hospitality.
We are also passionate about helping entrepreneurs to become fully ‘pitch ready’. To us this means ensuring they have a great value proposition, knowledge of their IP, a good sense of their competitors, an understanding of all the sources of capital, grants and investments, how to craft a business plan, and to view and analyse the difference between good and bad pitch decks. It also means being confronted with how investors might view their draft pitch document so they can amend it before it is too late.
That is what the five half day sessions of each of our EP Entrepreneurs Accelerator Programmes covers – with each programme being restricted to seven pre vetted entrepreneurs with non- compelling products or services looking for funding. Collaboration between fellow entrepreneurs is actively encouraged and is a strong and unique benefit of the programme.
The programmes culminate in one of our regular Entrepreneurs Pitch event to which are invited those who have successfully ‘graduated’ as ‘pitch ready’ – with the opportunity to present their product or service to specially selected angel investors and funds.
EP Accelerator Ltd, and the programme, is managed by serial entrepreneur Mike Day who also has at his disposal a cohort of significant industry veterans, specialists, NED’s and advisors – all part of the current EP Business in Hospitality network - who will either join related sessions or be connected to programme participants as their needs are highlighted.
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.
If you have a product or service that you need funds to launch, or need scale up funding, then do contact us by clicking here to find out more about our upcoming events.
