Sirius Programme 1st Session - 27th March - IST Lisbon

Do you have a bright business idea? Make it happen in the UK!

What is the Sirius Programme and who is it for?

The Sirius Programme is a scheme run by UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) that allows graduate entrepreneurs to apply for help setting up their business in the UK. Successful applicants receive a 12-month start-up support package which includes funding per team member (teams of 2-4), visa endorsement, a one year placement with a business accelerator programme, mentoring and logistical help with relocating to the UK (like a mobile phone and introduction to a bank manager on arrival).

One of the key aspects of the Sirius Programme that makes it the best programme in Europe, is that no equity is taken from the business so it remains 100% owned by the graduate teams. Recent graduates (Bachelors, Masters, or research degrees) may apply. We will soon open our vacancies for the next round. We are looking for bright, talented people from all over the world!

Whether you have an early stage idea or an established business plan, apply to this programme, one of the most comprehensive start-up packages offered globally. We're looking for talented teams of entrepreneurs and global entrepreneurs with business ideas in any sector that have great potential to succeed in the UK. The next competition will take place in the Spring 2014 - Check your eligibility here.

Join us on the 27 March! - You can also apply for the opportunity to have a 10 min. one-to-one session with a Sirius Scout should you have an idea/project that you are already considering to implement in the UK.

Date: Thursday 27 March @ 14:30

Location: IST- Instituto Superior Técnico, Sala de Reuniões I (Porta 0.20), Pavilhão de Informática II
