The Startup Harbour
- London -
We offer a safe, friendly and honest environment for you to start and run your business. We are an incubator, investor, accelerator and your fully outsourced operations, marketing, legal, accounting and administration departments.
85% of people intend to start a business
Because the adverts and business coaches make it sound so easy
But less than 12% do, and over 90% fail
Because it isn't easy, it requires specific skills and decades of experience
So we created a new way of doing things
​
The Startup Harbour.
You use your skills and we use ours
Our ideal client partners
We accept applications from anybody with any idea we can support, and thus our clients come in many forms:
​
-
Young entrepreneurs, lifestyle ventures, senior professionals, semi retirement businesses
-
Founders aged 20-65​ intending to work full or part time and from any location
-
Fully or part funded, seeking funding, in need of investment or self financing
-
Founders looking to create a long term sustainable business or to build up and sell
​
As long as you have a skill, experience and a network inside your own industry we can do the rest.
​​
People we aren't suited to
We won't take anyone unless we honestly believe we are the best team to help make them successful, there are better incubators for :​
​
-
Dropshipping, property, crypto or E-comerce firms
-
Serial entrepreneurs, people running multiple businesses​
-
Founders looking for really extreme high growth and a quick sale
-
Anyone seeking passive income or who thinks business is easy
-
People without the required skills and experience in their industry
-
Anyone who needs but doesn't have their own industry network ​​​​
What we do
We offer a safe, friendly and honest environment for you to start and run your business. We are an incubator, investor, accelerator and your fully outsourced operations, marketing, legal, accounting and administration departments.
​​
Our goal is to be the only partner or employee you need.
Who we are
We are a network of professionals from the startup and small business world who have hundreds of years experience and as many successful and failed startups between us.
​
Who each client meets and works with will depend on their needs.
Who we work with
We consider applications from all firms but generally don't work with dropshipping, property or crypto firms.
We aren't just looking for high growth tech firms that will be sold during startup. We like individuals who want to build stable profitable businesses for the long term too.
​
What we charge
Our services and thus charges vary as much as the firms we work with. ​As a guide, our charges start as low as £500pm. We can take a firm from idea to trading with website, CRM, email, bookkeeping, calendar systems and registrations etc for a fixed fee of as litte as £5k.
​
Do we take equity?
Sometimes, as with charges it varies according to what you want and need. We can take equity in lieu or addition to monthly charges if we both think it is the best solution. If we decide we are good partners, we are flexible about how it works.
Can we provide funding?
Yes, we can offer funding in-house or through our network, where we decide we aren't a good fit as investor. If you already have an investor in mind we can assist you to prepare for the pitch meeting.
