Education Innovation Challenge

Transforming lives through learning

The Tribal Education Innovation Challenge offers colleagues in any sector of education the opportunity to develop a business idea in the supportive and challenging setting which Tribal provides. We are looking for business ideas that contribute to raising standards of achievement, enhancing the range of provision currently available, and/or improving the effectiveness of educational institutions and agencies.

We invite you to submit outline business proposals to us. In return, for those ideas that we agree to take forward, we can offer you:

  • Initial investment
  • Routes to market
  • Office space in a UK-wide network
  • Access to Tribal’s central HR, financial services, sales and marketing teams
  • Access to office services
  • Business mentoring

  • Access to Tribal’s range of expertise
  • Opportunity to develop new services and products
  • The opportunity to develop an equity stake in a start-up business
  • An interesting group of colleagues to work with

We welcome ideas from individuals, institutions, or existing small businesses. We guarantee to treat all commercially sensitive material in confidence and to respect any identified intellectual property rights.
