Town centre office hub Vulcan Works has launched a brand-new Dragons Den style contest for entrepreneurs looking for the chance to shine.
The Vulcan’s Den competition, based on the popular BBC television series in which entrepreneurs pitch business ideas to wealthy investors, will see business visionaries pitch to a four-strong panel for the chance to win a serviced office space for one month.
The panel of judges will be Vulcan Works Business Growth Manager Darren Smith, The Growth Hub’s Sam Hunter and Barclays Eagle Lab’s Owen Moran and they will pick a winner after face-to-face presentations describing the business and why it would be a great addition to the innovative centre.
Vulcan Works is home to a bustling business community in Northampton. Not just a lettable office space, the innovative hub, also offers unrivalled business support, creative workshops, topical events and masterclasses for those who call Vulcan Works home.
Space in the award-winning purpose-built workspace is highly sought-after, and with the main building on Guildhall Road at full capacity and the next-door four-storey St John’s building with limited availability, this kind of opportunity is a rarity for new businesses.
All Vulcan Works customers have unlimited access to 1-2-1 bespoke business coaching with Darren Smith as well as the chance to join topical masterclasses and informative workshops within the Vulcan Works community, making the prize invaluable.
Centre manager Garrick Hurter said: “We are thrilled to be hosting the Vulcans Den contest, which is a fantastic way to get a well-earned trial run for one month in our much-loved business community.
“This opportunity is perfect for anyone who is considering office space or needs room to help build or grow their business without any outlay. It is a chance to access additional business support free of charge and make new connections too – all of which is immensely helpful to fledgling businesses.
“I look forward to welcoming all our entrants to Vulcan Works and seeing what the Vulcans Den has in store!”
Vulcans Den will take place on Tuesday 30th June at Vulcan Works. Anyone wishing to take part must complete an entry form, which can be found here
Entries must be completed by 17th June. A £50 refundable deposit will be required from the winner for office keys.
