Selection process

To apply to become a Pioneer you need to complete a short online questionnaire. The application process takes around 20 minutes. Our expert panel will assess all applications and create a shortlist based on scalability, profit potential, and relevant experience. There is then a more detailed online assessment to select the top ten.

These ten will then take part in an intensive growth programme of specialist coaching and support, and can pitch to receive long-term business coaching and office space.
