“Cambridge is a chaos of entrepreneurial activity,” says Hanadi Jabado. “It’s a brilliant chaos and that is its strength, but there hasn’t been a structured approach to supporting entrepreneurs and helping them to take their ideas to the next stage.”
As director of Accelerate Cambridge, Jabado is committed to filling that perceived gap by providing support to at least some of the fledgling businesses emerging from the city and its university. Established by the Cambridge Judge Business School around 18 months ago, the accelerator’s mission is to ‘enable venture creation’ by helping entrepreneurial teams through the process of turning ideas into viable and sustainable businesses.
