Entrepreneurial Business Sprint Programme to Take Place in South Yorkshire This November

Transform SY, the people accelerator developing excellent entrepreneurs in South Yorkshire, is set to deliver a 2-day business sprint in Doncaster next month. 

After supporting 18 businesses to launch new products and services since the start of this year, the Transform SY team is opening applications for a 2-day business sprint, called BizJam. Driven by demand from founders in the region, for a programme based on the accelerator’s ethos, the event packs the main points of an accelerator packed into a short burst of activity.  

BizJam will be delivered by the Transform SY team, with a decade of expertise in startup and entrepreneurial support. The Sprint will be on the 22 & 23 November and is a great opportunity for early-stage founders looking for a burst of progress or mature founders who are looking for a reset or a new spur of energy for their business.

Entrepreneurs who apply for Transform SY BizJam should expect to come out of the event with an ambitious 90-day action plan to transform their journey. They will also learn how to tailor a pitch according to an audience, how to make the most of the local business ecosystem and how to get access to Transform SY’s Mentorship Pool.

Speaking about BizJam, Denislav Ivanov, Marketing & Community Manager for Transform SY, said: "We’ve met a lot of founders in South Yorkshire who are very interested in our mindset-led approach to acceleration and business support but are not ready to commit to a 6-month programme. As our main purpose is to serve the entrepreneurs in the region, we decided to accommodate their needs and create a shorter, 2-day business sprint where we will equip early-stage founders with everything they need to jumpstart their entrepreneurial journeys."
