Business Growth Support - 10x10 Business Accelerator

10 Week Structured Business Accelerator

Supporting High Growth Digital & Technology Businesses

Northern Max Accelerator 2024 builds on our successful programmes delivered over the last 6 years and aims to develop and grow talented digital and technology companies in Bradford and Leeds.

At its core, Northern Max Accelerator is a 10-week structured programme of weekly half-day collaborative-learning workshops. Each workshop focuses on a thematic business skill or competence. Workshops are delivered interactively in a Boardroom setting, and in a blended methodology of webinars, videos and directed group exercises by top business educators/trainers chosen for their subject matter or sector expertise. This is the spine of the programme.

northern max Programme Overview

Specific support layers of this exclusive programme

Based on individually assessed needs, each business receives:

  •  A mentor is assigned to each beneficiary for the duration of the programme – typically offering an hour per week support over the programme duration.
  • Weekly Workshop on a specific business skill or competence from a sector specialist.
  • Masterclasses throughout the programme – a sector specific or unique interest guest speaker will join for an informal Q&A session to share experience and advice.
  • Programme Pitch Finale – A live “demo session” in front of an invited audience with each beneficiary pitching their business to a panel for prizes.

We are looking for ambitious digital and technology orientated businesses looking to grow and scale.

The programme is open to new businesses who have been trading for less than 3 years and based in Bradford or Leeds.

Across many sectors, young businesses have the capacity to increase productivity and sustainability by developing digital capabilities, so if this is something you want to explore, get in touch.

Please note: Some further eligibility criteria do apply.

  • The business must be trading, and not over three years since the trading start date.
  • The business must be based in Bradford or Leeds.
  • The business should have ambitions to grow and scale the business and to build a team.
  • Both B2B and B2C businesses can be supported, if B2C the business must aim to trade more than 50% outside of the West Yorkshire geography.
