The MSIP Accelerator is an intense business accelerator designed to help ambitious, young companies who are developing new solutions in sustainable mobility and decarbonisation achieve a step-change in their business.
This structured programme is modelled on best-in class tech accelerators, designed to help you achieve a step change in your venture, build confidence and increase momentum for growth.
The MSIP Accelerator is structured around 3 key pillars of activity:
- Learning – Gaining proven start-up skills, tools and frameworks.
- Executing – Applying learnings to your venture.
- Connecting – Growing your network, learning from experts and meeting investors.

The MSIP Accelerator is delivered over 12 weeks, including:
- Self-Study e-learning modules (weekly) – Accessed via a private portal so you can explore at your convenience.
- Three full day in-person sessions at MSIP (Launchpad week 1, mid-point and final event).
- Live Online Workshops (weekly, between in-person sessions) – Interactive workshops to practice key concepts with peers, linking to how you can apply the learning to your venture. Each session will include either group problem solving or a Roundtable event, which will give you the opportunity to meet a guest speaker and build your network.
- 1:1 Coaching – You will be assigned a coach that will meet your 3 times over the programme. The coach will provide accountability and support as required around the development of your opportunity, your investor readiness and/or pitch practice.
The programme ends with an exciting final pitch event in front of a panel of investors and funders, giving you the opportunity to showcase your venture to investment experts and your peers.
