For ecosystem partners.

When your region has the research…

bearingline partners with clusters and innovation programmes to develop the commercial skills companies need to build businesses around new technology.

Technological capabilities are found nationwide…. but there is a lack of the commercial skills to take these innovations to the next step.

Many spinout founders have deep technical backgrounds and limited enterprise sales experience. Programmes that fund the technology rarely fund the commercial capability to take it to market. Here we become stuck.

Ignition Academy for cohorts

We run commercial training for cohorts of companies in your programme. Over a tailored course of live sessions, built on over twenty years of commercial expertise, we develop capability alongside teams and build a process that can run on its own once the programme ends.

Company support

Companies in your programme that are ready to scale can work with us as clients.

We work alongside their leadership team on the route to their first contracts.

Connections

We work with the people developing future technology and the organisations that could put it to use.

We introduce the companies in your programme to those organisations.

Programme reporting

We report progress against the milestones agreed with you, so you can show your funders what the programme delivered.

Each partnership is tailored to your programme and your cohort

We deliver each step in person and adapt the content to the technologies and sectors your companies work in.

If you would rather build the capability in-house, Ignition Academy trains your team to do this work themselves.
