Why NG Studios?
Participants who raise seed funding with Northern Gritstone typically raise above the average seed funding round for the UK.
You join a community of like-minded peers. Being part of an ‘ecosystem’ of founders increases your chances of success*.
You are connected to a global network of experts who have taken that same journey and bring their own experience and expertise. These are people who want to lean in and support early-stage high-potential businesses.
Participants remain part of our community and stay connected long after completing the program.
*Startups that are part of a connected ecosystem grow 3.5 times faster than startups that are isolated.
