Innovation centre launches entrepreneur accelerator programme
Coworking space and innovation centre Plexal has announced the launch of a new accelerator programme.
Plexal’s OpenDoor initiative will support products, services and projects that make work more inclusive and enable under-represented groups to access better business and economic opportunities.
The accelerator programme will give entrepreneurs access to marketing and messaging support, business model development, tailored introductions to partners, investors and corporates, as well as access to the Plexal Community and coworking space.
Russell Gundry, head of innovation strategy at Plexal, explained: “By supporting ventures that create better inclusion with the level of focus and drive usually given to startups and scaleups, we can make an enormous difference.
“We can’t wait to start working with first cohort on building more socially inclusive businesses, workspaces and policies.”
