WE Innovate is Imperial’s flagship female entrepreneurship education programme designed to support the next generation of women entrepreneurs to accelerate their startups. The six-month programme supports female students, developing an early stage business idea, to advance their leadership and entrepreneurial skills. One of our key goals of this competition is to increase the number of female engineers setting up their own ventures and the WE Innovate team works closely with the Faculty of Engineering to promote the programme directly to engineers.
Positive Feedback
The Engineers in Business Award is a fantastic resource for Imperial College London students with engineering backgrounds. The award has given aspiring female founders a greater chance at solving some of the world’s biggest problems. The Imperial Enterprise Lab would be delighted to continue the strong relationship with the Engineers in Business Fellowship to support engineering students, graduates and postgraduates in their participation with entrepreneurship.
