We care about the growth and success of the UK’s startup ecosystem. We conduct research and policy initiatives to inform local and national governments, policymakers and startups. 

We fight the case for the importance and relevance of enterprise and business support and lobby for changes or new initiatives that will enable our members to better serve entrepreneurs.

We lobby government, decision-makers and influential public sector bodies and exert our influence to represent the views from the startup ecosystem to make sure they are heard.

We undertake work to support our members and the sector to make as big an impact as possible, and when requested, to research, collect, analyse and publish high-quality research reports.
