Turning ideas into Impact

Whether you are simply curious about entrepreneurship, interested in innovation or already thinking about launching something of your own, this informal session is designed for you.

Join Edinburgh Innovations (EI) to learn how we support University of Edinburgh students and graduates at every stage — from early curiosity, to developing ideas, to launching and growing a venture.

During the session, you will:

• Learn about the range of support available through EI, including programmes, funding opportunities and one-to-one advice
• Hear directly from a guest founder, who will share their honest journey, key lessons and practical insights
• Have time to ask questions, meet the EI team and connect with other students and graduates
• Enjoy free pizza while networking in a relaxed, welcoming environment

No prior experience or business idea is required. If you are interested in learning what is possible — or just want to explore new directions — this session is a great place to start.

Taking place on two dates with different locations:
