START announce new strategic partnership with Scottish EDGE.

START and Scottish Edge CEO Evelyn McDonald.

We are thrilled to announce a strategic partnership between START and Scottish EDGE, joining forces to develop the next generation of entrepreneurial talent in Scotland.

Scottish EDGE, Scotland’s biggest business funding competition, has been an inspiration to START since day one. This year, EDGE alumni have played a key role in mentoring our pupil startups, and the partnership we’re announcing today will allow us to scale this transformative aspect of our programme to even more schools.

The founders of the future are currently sitting in our classrooms, and together, START and Scottish EDGE are on a mission to fast-track their success.

We’re hugely grateful for the support of Evelyn McDonald, and a big thank you to Danny Campbell, Alicja Dzieciol, Rich Wilson, and Ryan Carenduff for their invaluable mentorship this year. If you’re passionate about developing young entrepreneurs, we’d love to hear from you—let’s shape the future together! 💡🔥
