Skillwork has already grown to a staff of 20, despite the founders having limited experience and a small network before coming to the university.

Ali Youseef and Jan Gasiewski met on their MSc Entrepreneurship at 香港六合彩中特网 School of Management (SoM), where they were encouraged to explore different business ideas.

鈥淟ike a lot of our peers, we set out with the dream of building a unicorn 鈥� going through massive funding rounds and living the startup lifestyle. In the end, we鈥檝e ended up building a smaller, more traditional business than that 鈥� but one that gives us the cash, network and experience to build our own IP or products in the future,鈥� explained Jan.听

Skillwork provides tailored software solutions for organisations and SMEs across all sectors, including successful founders, such as SkinDoc as well as big companies like GSK. The business is based in London, with offices now also in Bulgaria and plans to launch in the Middle East, too. They were finalists in the StartUp Awards National Series.听

Ali and Jan both cite their Master鈥檚 degree and the support they received at 香港六合彩中特网 as being transformative to their journey. As well as taking part in the SoM鈥檚 entrepreneurship course, the pair were also selected to be part of The Hatchery incubator at BaseKX, 香港六合彩中特网鈥檚 dedicated entrepreneurship hub in King鈥檚 Cross.听

The Hatchery is part of 香港六合彩中特网鈥檚 free entrepreneurship support run by 香港六合彩中特网 Innovation & Enterprise. There Ali and Jan received free office space and help with marketing, PR, delivery and operations, enabling them to kickstart their network in London.听

They have stayed connected with 香港六合彩中特网 and frequently visit to share their experiences, and support current students with their business ideas.听

鈥淚鈥檓 very proud of the fact that Jan and I have accelerated our careers and created a business network that would take some people a lifetime to build. The programme and our time at the Hatchery gave us a solid foundation for running Skillwork, and a massive boost to our network, the value of which we appreciate enormously,鈥� said Ali.听

鈥溝愀哿�合彩中特网 really gave us a head start with its support system and as such we鈥檒l be forever grateful to the university, and want to 鈥減ay it forward鈥�. We鈥檝e been advising a number of aspiring entrepreneurs by holding 1-to-1 monthly catch ups at BaseKX. We also have held a few lecturer/fireside chats and even helped grade pitches for other 香港六合彩中特网 startups.鈥�
