We are partnering with law firm Counton GMS to launch "Gradmatch".

 

What is Gradmatch?

£200k cash injection + a graduate for 30 months

Who qualifies?

Applicants must satisfy the following conditions:

• You run an innovative venture or startup (creative, artistic or technology).

• The venture is a company registered and active in the UK.

• The company is able to demonstrate financial sustainability over the next 3 years.

• The company is willing to hire a graduate for a period of 30 months. The graduates taking part in this scheme are foreign nationals (non EEA citizens) who graduated from British universities.

• Each £200k funding deal is regulated and must gain Home Office approval. Don't worry, our partners at Counton take care of the paperwork! Government approval usually takes 4 weeks maximum from the day the application is filed.

• Projects that have successfully raised funds through Sponsume or any other reputable crowdfunding platforms (such as Crowdcube, Seedrs, Crowdfunder or Kickstarter) will be given priority. However a prior crowdfunding campaign is not strictly necessary to qualify.

Next step?

• The business and the team

• 3 year financial projections (including the 200k investment)

• An expectation of what the impact and potential return on investment would be

• What role a new graduate would play within the team
