Apply for our 2024 programme

Are you a Future Leader?

The Future Leaders programme supports young entrepreneurs from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds to build the skills and network they need to grow successful businesses.

For our 2024 cohort, we’re looking for aspiring business owners:

with a digital product or service offering
from an ethnically diverse or lower socioeconomic background, or a person with a disability
between the ages of 21-30

This year, we are specifically interested in supporting businesses that are improving public services with a focus on accessibility, digital inclusion or sustainability.

That sounds like me!

Why apply?

TPXimpact delivers impactful and sustainable digital outcomes that make a positive difference to individuals and society. We bring that knowledge and expertise to this programme. We've supported 29 entrepreneurs in six editions of the programme so far. Could you be next?

Upskill

Tap into the experiences of industry experts at monthly professional development workshops. Learn about value proposition, finance and accounting, branding and digital marketing, pitching, and more.

1:1 Coaching

Work with your individually assigned coach at monthly 1:1 sessions to help shape what progress looks like for your business and create a roadmap to success.

Network

During the programme, you’ll have access to all our experts who can help you with various elements of the business. You’ll also have the chance to present to investors at the end of the programme.

Get paid

We know that one of the biggest barriers to entry for underrepresented entrepreneurs is finding the time to focus on your business. After all, time is money... That's why we offer £3000 over your six-month programme, paid in monthly instalments of £500, to help you dedicate time to building your skills and business.

What do our alumni say?

Savena Surana

Co-founder of Identity 2.0

Everyone at TPXimpact is generous with their time and expertise and wants to see you succeed. You’ll be given real advice on how to grow your business that is tailored to you and grounded in industry experience. Best of all, you get to meet entrepreneurs at similar stages to you. Being a small cohort means you can learn and grow together, and help one another. The skills, tools and connections I developed during the program will continue to help me and my business for many years to come.

Francis Jones

2022 Future Leader — CEO and founder of STEM@Home

Whereas many other accelerators give you classes on making a business model canvas, Future Leaders gives you access to the expertise of most of the employees in the entire company. This really helps tailor the programme to what you need to succeed, not what most entrepreneurs need to succeed. I learnt the importance of analysing market data and being able to pivot my business model accordingly. Ever since pivoting the business model, our sales have spiked dramatically.

Daniel Acheampong

Founder of Talk 2 Dan

Wearing all the hats was never easy but being able to locate like-minded creatives that share the same passion and have similar values has been so valuable. My coach and the TPXimpact sessions allowed me to understand what characteristics I was looking for in a team member. Without Future Leaders I wouldn't be in this position where coming away from the programme has allowed me to grow as an individual and learn the key things needed to build a team and to become sustainable!

Michael-Jordan (MJ) Faucher-Folie

2022 Future Leader — Founder of Just Once Ltd

The Future Leaders programme provided me with the invaluable opportunity to learn from and be mentored by industry experts and has played a pivotal role in strengthening every facet of my business. Though Future Leaders, I became part of a community of consultants who consistently go the extra mile to support my aspirations for creating positive impact.
