This morning I was asked to be a panellist hearing some really impressive pitches from entrepreneurs across Havas who have developed fully-fledged business concepts with the support of Gate One and the Gate One Incubator. The diversity, quality and genuine potential of the ideas was something to behold. The participants had only 12 weeks to go from zero to a working prototype, and we heard about everything from: 💱 ...an already-working niche sports-betting odds comparison tool ❤️ ...to an online community for those with auto-immune diseases 🥥 ...to an entirely new type of hollistic health drink 👖 ...to custom-made womenswear for taller ladies and everything in between! For over a decade now, the Gate One Incubator scheme has supported our team members (including me!) to start their own businesses on the side – we believe it develops grit, business acumen, creativity and pragmatism – skills and mindsets that then also transfer to our management consulting work.
