Catalyst Autumn 2020 Co-Founders open for start-up applications

  • Applications are currently open for Catalyst’s Autumn 2020 Co-Founders programme, for those interested in product developments and start-ups.

    Catalyst is a non-profit organisation that helps and works with Northern Ireland’s innovative entrepreneurs and start-up companies.

    The team added that the latest Co-Founders programme could be great “for someone with an idea for an exciting new product who needs a team to make it happen. Or it could be someone who has experienced success in their career to date but now wants to help someone else get their idea off the ground.”

    Established teams can also apply but need to go through the Hothouse process to meet the rest of the cohort and potentially add further expertise to their team.

    Alongside a multitude of professional backgrounds, Catalyst is actively encouraging recent graduates, current undergraduates, postgraduates and PhD students to apply to the initiative, to help improve their employability and develop a creative mindset.

    The same applies to individuals whose employment may have been affected by Covid-19.

    Applications close on 14 September, with the core programme to be delivered on Monday evenings (6 – 8.30pm) between 12 October – 21 December this year.
