Discover how Cambridge entrepreneurs have transformed their ideas into thriving startups!

Join us at the IE Cambridge Expo on 13th November to hear first hand from founders who’ve participated in the various programmes and accelerators available at the University and learn how you can do the same.

Whether you’re an undergraduate, postgrad, postdoc, or staff, this event is a great opportunity to connect, share ideas, and find out about the support available to help you develop your entrepreneurial skillset and bring your venture to life.

IE Expo is an opportunity for support providers within the Cambridge Entrepreneurial ecosystem to champion their competitions, programmes and events.
