impulse is an established action-learning programme of global significance with a sharp focus on prioritising the development of high-potential technology innovation into a commercial proposition. The 12-week hybrid programme – which is offered online and in-person via the Maxwell Centre, the University of Cambridge’s hub for industry and research - is unique in serving as a catalyst for entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship. It is specifically designed to simultaneously host both entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs with the newest ideas, or ideas that will challenge or evolve out of a corporate environment. Aimed primarily at technology innovators, applicants come from a range of disciplines, industries, countries and ethnics, and include PostDocs and researchers across the different fields of physical sciences, technology and life sciences, as well as early-stage entrepreneurs and researchers/engineers/managers from large corporates and organisations. Key to impulse’s approach and success is its network of passionate and involved mentors, all top-tier entrepreneurs from Cambridge’s celebrated innovation cluster, which has created a uniquely different learning environment. Dr David Cleevely, Prof Anne Ferguson-Smith, Prof Sir Richard Friend, Dr Deborah Harland, Dr Hermann Hauser and Prof Sir Mark Welland are just some off the role models sharing their industry knowledge and experience, and providing invaluable advice and guidance to those on the programme. impulse is challenging, inspirational, global, educational and, at the same time, fun. The length of programme is designed to give invaluable time for reflection whilst maintaining the pace and bring ideas onto the right path for success For further information, please email impulse@maxwell.cam.ac.uk
