Impulse AMP

Advanced support for founders preparing for launch

Impulse AMP provides structured startup accelerator support beyond the Impulse Programme, with 6 months of focused mentoring aimed at preparing your business for market entry, investment and scaleup.

So if you are an Impulse alumni, or are the founder of a more developed early-stage tech startup - an incorporated business with nascent team and some early customer validation - Impulse AMP may be perfect for you.

Impulse AMP delivers finished operational plans, skills and knowledge, new connections, and unique resources.

Impulse AMP will help you build the marketing plan, financial model and investment deck that you need to establish your business, secure funding, and lay the foundations for your future success.

Access the full 3-month Impulse programme of talks and workshops, developing your knowledge and build your skills in the company of leading experts. Gain vital presenting experience and valuable feedback from our experienced pitch panel.

Join numerous networking events and our Impulse dinner to develop valuable new contacts and connections in the Cambridge innovation ecosystem and beyond.
