Pivot Labs helps people pivot their careers from the public sector into entrepreneurship.

We support candidates from society focused backgrounds including the civil service, military, police, supporting industries and academia.

We help people build new startups focussed on solving a commercial problem that has value to wider society and might have a public sector customer (dual use).

We help increase the diversity and supply of innovators in the UK. All ages all backgrounds irrespective of qualifications. We are unlocking talent and it’s potential.

Where someone might better suit other programmes and support we’ll direct them there in the first instance.

Ahead of quitting your job to found your startup we’ll work with you to understand if it’s the right career choice, whether you’ve explored all your options, and help you start to develop some startup ideas if you don’t yet have any. Deep Tech or otherwise.
