Medici Enterprise Training

Who is Medici for?

Medici is open to researchers who are considering commercialisation through any business model.

Arts and science disciplines are equally welcome, and delegates can be at any stage of their journey, from early consideration with no clear business offering to working on a specific and viable business idea.

Medici is delivered by a team of entrepreneurial experts and trainers. The team also delivers bespoke onsite training courses at other universities and is working with the Forging Ahead project to deliver a Medici programme for Midlands universities in 2026.

What does Medici cover?

Medici provides an introduction to entrepreneurship for researchers who are at the beginning of their commercialisation journey.

Seven days of in-person training are delivered by experienced trainers and entrepreneurs. The programme outlines the key stages from having an idea to commercial readiness, and introduces areas like intellectual property, commercial strategy, selling skills, pricing, and culminates with business planning, and investment readiness.
