Bright Ideas is Kingston University's annual ideas competition. Whatever subject you are studying, it gives you the opportunity to develop an idea, have it evaluated, win a prize, and join our incubation system. This is also an opportunity to develop your CV and boost your employability

You need no prior business experience to enter Bright Ideas. It’s open to all Kingston University students from any course and level, and graduates of 2020/2021 academic year. The only requirements are open-mindedness, creativity, and enthusiasm!

Since the Bright ideas Final in February, twelve of our most committed students/graduates entrepreneurs have worked hard in developing the commercial side of their ideas, and they are now ready to take their start-up to the next level. At the Launch, they will present their start-up to investors, competing for up to 15K grant.

2020/21 Bright Ideas Launch and Pitching event represents the last stage of the current academic year Bright Ideas programme, as well as the opening of 2020/2021 Bright Ideas annual programme.

If you want support with developing your idea we run workshops like the Bright Start Up Sessions​ that will strengthen your entry, so make sure you look up our Enterprise Education events!
