It was such a privilege to be at the Scottish EDGE Round 25 Awards last night to watch the 2025 START Winners, The Inde-pendants, pitch their startup to a room full of the brightest entrepreneurial talent in the country.
EDGE has been a huge inspiration to START from the very beginning, and their willingness to partner with us to provide this incredible experience for our young people feels like a massive step forward in our mission to connect schools to the dynamic Scottish startup ecosystem.
It was also tremendously encouraging to speak to a number of people afterward who were keen to know more about the programme. These are exciting times for START as we seek to more than double the number of schools involved next session!
Enormous thanks to Evelyn McDonald, Kevin Walls, Jack Proctor and the whole Scottish EDGE team for a wonderful night, and for all they’re doing for Scottish entrepreneurship!
