OX1 understands and caters for the needs of student entrepreneurs far better than current university or college-led support systems. We do not take equity or IP, and provide end-to-end support throughout the process of start-up foundation. In addition to the incubator programme, we run social events and have established a strong alumni network of student entrepreneurs and mentors.
