We’re excited to launch the Idea Ignite Challenge—a fast and fun way for you to kick-start your entrepreneurial idea and win £250 in funding!  This initiative gives you a chance to put your innovative ideas forward, receive quick feedback, and get support from Strath Union and Strath Inspire.

How It Works

Submit your proposal either online (form at bottom of this page) or in person using the submission box at the Welcome Desk on level 1 of Strath Union

Deadline: All proposals must be submitted by Friday, 14th March at 12:00 PM.

Selection:

We’ll shortlist the top 3 proposals.

An in-person event will be held on Monday, 18th March at 13:30 in the Mandela Room.

A panel, including team members and a VP, will choose the winner based on live feedback.

Benefits of Getting Involved

Funding: Win £250 to kick-start your idea.

Experience: Gain practical experience in pitching your idea.

CV Boost: Add valuable entrepreneurial experience to your CV and earn LinkedIn badges.

Networking: Connect with like-minded peers and industry supporters.

Further Support: If you need more help, you’ll be referred to Strath Inspire for additional mentoring and resources.

This is a quick, agile initiative designed to get your ideas off the ground with minimal hassle. It’s a perfect opportunity if you have a great idea but want to try something different from the longer Inspire programmes.
