For Lexverify, participating in the NCSC For Startups programme was transformational. From sales training to investment readiness, the programme prepared us for the next stage of our journey. In the one year following graduation we acquired new customers, expanded our cyber security focus and raised a Seed round, and we’re not stopping here.

Joining the NCSC For Startups programme was a game-changer for Acubed IT. It opened up incredible networking opportunities and gave us insights that have directly boosted our product development.
It’s been an awesome ride, and the impact on our business is clear—better products, stronger connections, and a solid path forward. Huge thanks to the NCSC team and Plexal for the support and guidance.

NCSC For Startups accelerated the growth of RevEng.ai. During the programme, we closed a funding round and engaged with customers through introductions made. The teachings and activities developed have since been propagated and put into practise when dealing with new customers and wider stakeholders. It ensured all of the companies had the basic teachings to set our companies up for success.
