There’s just three weeks left for wannabe entrepreneurs to join the third cohort of the Vulcan Works business incubation programme.
Ambitious individuals looking for help to bring a business idea to life can apply to join Vulcan Creatives, a free six-month initiative to support start-ups and visionaries.
Already, two cohorts of 10 entrepreneurs have graduated from the programme having grown an innovative idea or even built a thriving new business.
The path is now open for a new group to follow in their footsteps. Applications close on Friday, 12th September.
Successful candidates will meet regularly with Vulcan Creatives business growth experts, who will guide them through the process of exploring, validating, and developing an idea into a fully-fledged business plan, helping them learn the skills needed to succeed in business.
During the programme, the creatives will have access to free coworking space at Vulcan Works, dedicated Business Growth Manager Darren Smith offering bespoke 1-2-1 support, regular cohort huddles with fellow Vulcan Creatives start-up entrepreneurs and former graduates, plus insightful business support events and masterclasses.
Participants must be Northamptonshire residents aged 18 or over and be able to commit to a minimum of two days per week actively engaging in business support and coaching activities from October 2025.
Darren said: “We have already had a flurry of applications for the third round of Vulcan Creatives. The programme has gathered pace over the past two years with the success of previous participants, including One Kind Creative founder Olivia Krawczyk winning the StartUp For Good Award at the Midlands StartUp Awards this summer.
“It is a real privilege to be a part of the beginning of these business journeys and we look forward to helping the next cohort to bring their business dreams to life.
“There is still time to join us. Apply now for this fantastic entrepreneurship opportunity.”
