Kickstart diaries

Kickstart Global

Ever wanted to tune in, to listen to 16 university students trying to run an accelerator? Let’s rephrase: Ever wanted to follow 16 students on their incredible journey through challenges and successes, with the goal to create the most amazing accelerator? Join for chill coffee-house conversations and to find out what the committee is really working on. Kickstart is a student-run pre-accelerator program for student founders all over the UK. Our mission is to redefine the startup landscape and create a cross-campus community of student founders.

Lessons from Israel and Estonia

In this episode, we will have a look at two other amazing startup nations: Israel and Estonia.  What makes them unique? What is the campus-culture like there? What can the UK learn from them? We will answer all those questions in interviews with our amazing guests! If you have not listened to the first episode of this two part series yet, feel free to check it out.

What is wrong with the UK Start-Up Community?

After some weeks of radio silence (or shall we say podcast silence), kickstart diaries is back! In this relaunched first episode, we will examine the student startup landscape in the UK. Why are there relatively little student founders in the UK compared to other countries? What is the campus startup culture like? And in what aspects could the UK still improve a little? We will answer all those questions through our conversations with Kiran and George.
