At Crowdcube, we believe in the power of funding with impact. Behind 20 of the most popular crowdfunding campaigns of all time, we are Europe’s leading equity crowdfunding platform — empowering founders to raise the capital they need to make a lasting difference in the world. Our platform provides an innovative approach to fundraising, connecting ambitious entrepreneurs with a vibrant community of investors who are passionate about supporting meaningful ventures. Having worked with the likes of Monzo, ZOE, Qonto, Heura, what3words and more, we want to help take your business to the next level. Risk Warning: Investing in start-ups and early stage businesses involves risks, including illiquidity, lack of dividends, loss of investment and dilution, and it should be done only as part of a diversified portfolio. Crowdcube is targeted exclusively at investors who are sufficiently sophisticated to understand these risks and make their own investment decisions. You will only be able to invest via Crowdcube once you are registered as sufficiently sophisticated.

The benefits to universities of engaging students in work-based learning as part of their degree is evident for all to see. Work-based learning dramatically increases students employability, helps universities to attract more students to their degree programmes and enhances students satisfaction. However, organising work-based learning opportunities for students can feel daunting and quite overwhelming, especially at scale. That’s where Impact Consulting comes in. We partner with higher education institutions to provide an end-to-end solution to develop real-world company projects, dissertation projects, internships, placements and international experiences, that are completely tailored to universities needs. To date, we’ve partnered with 45+ universities to connect 7,500+ students globally to work with multi-nationals, SMEs, start-ups and NGOs across all academic disciplines. University education is changing… and fast, in an increasingly competitive graduate labour market, students need to develop the skills of the future… and work-based learning is the solution.
