“The Entrepreneur’s Programme was really valuable in helping us define the next steps for our business. The programme leaders were excellent and gave invaluable advice and feedback. Whether you are just at the idea stage or have a fully-formed business, the Entrepreneur’s Programme will only be a positive experience. For Trackener, it has brought lots of support and gave solid foundation to the business, which has been a vital early step for our business.”

“Working with SETsquared and taking part in the ERDF-funded Entrepreneur’s Programme has really accelerated the speed in which we’ve been able to bring the product to market. Getting access to experts in each domain is essential when starting any business and that’s what SETsquared’s so good at – connecting start-ups with the right people to move their business forward.”
