Are you developing research, technology or an idea with the potential to create change?
WE Innovate, delivered by the Imperial Enterprise Lab, supports women researchers to explore the commercial potential of their work and develop the skills to bring new innovations to the world.
Through a five-month programme of tailored workshops, coaching, mentoring and network building, WE Innovate helps you:
- Understand how to translate your research into real-world solutions
- Develop your innovation into a commercially viable proposition
- Build confidence in communicating your ideas to diverse audiences
25 women-led teams will be selected to join the 2025 cohort, with the opportunity to pitch for a share of £30,000 in prize funding. The programme is designed to fit around your research or other commitments.
WE Innovate is open to Imperial students, early career researchers, and alumni (within two years of graduation). Over the past decade, WE Innovate has supported more than 500 women from Imperial — many of whom have gone on to launch ventures, collaborate with industry, and secure over £80 million in funding.
📅 Applications close 9:00AM, Monday 17 November
