Starting your own business can be both exciting and daunting. 

Where do you start? What do you need? Who do you ask for help?

Attend KB Talks and meet successful entrepreneurs who know the ins and outs of setting up a business from scratch. Listen to their stories, meet like-minded people, and get inspired to start your own entrepreneurial journey.

The talks will be followed by a Q&A and a networking reception so that you have plenty of time to chat to the speakers.

Confirmed speakers include:

  • Dr Matt Owens - Co-founder & Lead Scientist at BIOCAPTIVA
  • Maggie Hicks & Florentina Winkelmann - Co-founders of SynSense
  • Alex Speakman - Founder at E.V.A Biosystems
  • Dr Yunjie Yang - Co-developer and Co-founder at Smart e-skin - Soft Robotics
