Startup Builder 2025

Startup Builder is our brand-new programme designed to help founders grow and develop their early-stage ideas.



This year, we’re offering four expert-led workshops, chosen by students, for students, to give you the practical skills you need to build your startup.

Digital Prototyping with Figma

Learn the fundamentals of Figma – a powerful, free tool for designing and prototyping digital interfaces. In this hands-on workshop, you'll be guided through the process of creating a clickable prototype for an app, giving you the foundational skills to bring your digital ideas to life.

Ideal for anyone working on a project that involves a digital interface, such as an app or online platform, this session will cover everything from setting up frames to building interactive prototype flows.

No prior experience with Figma is required – it's perfect for complete beginners or those with limited experience.

This is a practical session, so please bring your laptop to take part fully and get the most out of the workshop.

See you there! 👋
