Entrepreneurs Fund

If you’re a young entrepreneur with a live business and big ambition, the All About Business Entrepreneurs Fund offers a powerful opportunity to grow.

Backed by Reed’s mission to improve lives through work, the fund will support at least six young founders, each receiving £20,000 plus expert mentoring to help scale their business, tackle challenges, and accelerate growth.
Successful applicants will benefit from direct funding, guidance from experienced business leaders, and a national platform to showcase their ideas. The programme is designed to build confidence, create momentum, and help early-stage businesses reach the next level.

To apply, you must be aged 18–26, based in the UK with the right to work, and running a business that has been trading for less than three years with at least one paying customer. A UK business bank account is also required.
The process includes an initial application, a detailed submission for shortlisted candidates in August 2026, and a final pitch event in London in September 2026.

Deadline for applications: Tuesday 7 July 2026.
