Every founder needs a buddy who knows the ecosystem.
Our mission: 60% of UK businesses fail within 5 years. We're here to halve that by 2035. By making the UK's startup ecosystem visible to every founder.
The support to reduce that failure rate exists. Accelerators, incubators, grants, funding, mentors. The UK has some of the best startup and scale-up infrastructure in the world. The problem is finding it.
PartnershipsBuddy.com was built to fix that. Answer a few quick questions and it surfaces the programmes, funding and support that fit where you are right now, from idea through to scaling. The right options for your stage, in one place, so you stop losing weeks to the search.
PartnershipsBuddy.com was built by Brian Sharkey. Brian spent 10 years building Barclays Eagle Labs, leading partnerships and transformation across one of the UK's largest startup networks. That work took him to every nation and region of the UK, alongside the country's leading ecosystem builders, incubators and accelerators.
Ten years inside the ecosystem teaches you one thing. The support exists, founders just can't find it. Brian watched too many good founders waste months on the wrong programmes or miss funding they never knew existed. PartnershipsBuddy.com puts that decade of insider knowledge in front of every founder who needs it, in five questions.
