Our Foundation exists because of the participation and financial support of visionary individuals, trusts and organisations who see Scotland's potential and have taken the step to make a change.
We are indebted to the University of Strathclyde for their ongoing support.
Entrepreneurial Scotland is an independent charitable Foundation at the forefront of championing and developing an entrepreneurial culture in Scotland.
Our focus is to develop those who can transform Scotland plc and our entrepreneurial culture
Scotland needs entrepreneurial leaders and a pool of talent equipped with the skills, mindset, and connections to create value. Through our work, we develop effective leaders and a pipeline of high-quality talent through transformative experiences, world class teaching, mentors, and peer to peer learning, because no one does it alone. As a founder and leader in the Scotland CANDO Collective we are the driving force in joining the dots to bring the entrepreneurial support ecosystem together.
We are a charity with limited cash reserves, which relies on the goodwill of many people to continue its work. We believe that Scotland can, by working together, create the world’s most entrepreneurial society … again.
Many businesses partner with Entrepreneurial Scotland each year to help them bring the best talent from Scottish universities into their organisation.
Our latest Entrepreneur in Residence is Chris Ayres, Chief Customer Officer at OPEX Group.
Paul McDonald is the Director and the CEO of CAMOR Ltd, a Edinburgh based specialist security company operating predominantly in the aviation sector.
