Investment Ready Programme for Diverse Founders

Funding London
The Investment Ready Programme for Diverse Founders is a free, eight week programme designed to support London-based pre-seed and seed stage businesses led by diverse founders in raising external capital. The support is delivered in partnership with Mountside Ventures. We are funded by UK Shared Prosperity Fund and supported by the Mayor of London.
The programme offers support and knowledge on early stage investment, as well as referrals to mentors and investors. You will have the opportunity to learn from experts about equity and venture debt, fundraising strategy, financial modelling, valuation, startup loans and most importantly, how to build a strong business proposition that will attract investors’ interest.
One-to-one support and materials to streamline the fundraising process will also be made available to participants.
Eligibility requirements
The following criteria need to be met to be considered for the programme:
- Based in one of London’s 32 boroughs
- Have a UK registered company
