Alumnus Darren Tenkorang, co-founder of TRIM-IT and Entrepreneur-in-Residence, who kickstarted his business while a Sussex student.
Apply for a chance to receive up to £250 and one-to-one coaching to kickstart your side-hustle or business idea.
If you’re lacking the guidance or finances to get your idea up and running, the Kickstart Grant is here to help you. With a cash boost to overcome money obstacles and one-to-one coaching support from the Entrepreneurship team, you’ll overcome initial challenges and set clear goals to develop your idea further.
You are all invited to apply but UK-domiciled undergraduates from underrepresented groups will be given priority.
You have until 10am on Monday 6 March to apply via Canvas. To enter, you'll be required to submit a Business Model Canvas along with answers to some key questions about your proposal and how this support can benefit you.
