St John’s Innovation Centre provides early stage knowledge-based companies with tailored business services and flexible accommodation. It was the first innovation centre of its kind in Europe and has become widely known for its success as a business incubator offering experience, contacts, resources and a presence in the community. It is located at the heart of the Greater Cambridge technology cluster, in which it plays a pivotal role. As a regional centre of excellence, St John’s Innovation Centre supports high growth businesses across the region and aims to provide the best strategic business advice, training and introductions for start-ups, micros and SMEs, particularly through the present GrowthAccelerator programme and the recent Understanding Finance for Business programme. The centre is currently delivering SJIC Training services via a combination of Leadership and Management training courses, bespoke training, masterclasses and workshops on topics relevant to growing businesses.
