Start Up Resources

Here at the University of Kent, we offer many ways to encourage our students and recent graduates to develop the skills, knowledge and expertise necessary to find the career and lifestyle of choice.

Business start-up services are available to all current students and recent graduates of the University.

The Kent Enterprise Hub is the University of Kent’s business incubation and support unit, devoted to working with students, graduates and staff start-ups and early stage companies to increase survival rates.

We provide business support services to our incubator companies, as well as flexible office space and laboratory accommodation (where available). 

The Kent Enterprise Hub is located on the University’s campus at Canterbury. The hub is overseen by an experienced Senior Enterprise Manager who is based in the hub with the client companies on a full time basis, to offer hands-on support and advice.

You can also book business advice sessions with our Business Advisors on Wednesday afternoon or Thursday morning. To make an appointment, please contact the Hub receptionist E.jenner-pescador@kent.ac.uk tel 824641.
