Imperial Startup Annual Survey 2024

Welcome to the Imperial Startup Annual Survey 2024! This is your opportunity to help us improve and broaden our support for the next generation of Imperial entrepreneurs, and update us on how you and your venture are getting on.


Whether you were part of one of Imperial's programmes (VCC, IVMS etc), made use one of Imperial's spaces (E-Lab, Hackspace, White City Incubator etc) or interacted with us as part of your startup journey, we want to hear from you. And if you haven't experienced support from Imperial's Innovation Ecosystem (yet), this is your opportunity to tell us about you, and help expand how we could support you in the future.


The information you provide will be invaluable in evaluating and tracking the impact of our programmes and identify areas for improvement. It also enables us to demonstrate the impact of our work and secure funding, collaborations and resource to continue and grow, which means we can provide support even more Imperial founders. 

 

The form should take 15-20 mins to complete and all of the information you provide will be treated in the strictest confidence. If we present the results we will anonymise and aggregate and will not publish individual data.

 

If you have any questions please email the Enterprise Lab team at enterprise.lab@imperial.ac.uk 


As a thank you, all participants will receive an exclusive invitation to a VIP drinks reception later this year with fellow Imperial founders and the Imperial community.


If you could complete this by 23:59 on Sunday 6th October 2024 we would be hugely grateful.
