Our take

For nearly a decade now, award-winning non-profit Hatch Enterprise has been helping UK founders develop the skill sets necessary to launch and grow their businesses. The organisation offers workshops, events, and community and networking support, with a particular focus on assisting underrepresented entrepreneurs.

UK startups have attracted record-breaking amounts of capital over recent years. Couple this with the substantial uptick in entrepreneurs over the same period and it has made for a fertile and attractive landscape for UK founders. Correspondingly, support organisations like Hatch Enterprise are seeing increasing demand.

Moreover, Hatch Enterprise’s focus chimes with a broader push to offer particular support to underrepresented candidates. Organisations like OneTech have already expanded its services to accommodate this, but Hatch Enterprise’s explicit focus grants it the reputation to potentially draw in a greater proportion of exciting new tech startups. The London startup scene has been especially hot recently, so it will be interesting to see how Hatch Enterprise will continue to grow with it.
