Get ready to witness the most innovative startups in action at Ignite Demo Day 2026 - where the future is being shaped!

Experience the excitement of Ignite Demo Day, where Oxford Brookes students and graduates step into the spotlight to pitch their business ideas and showcase the progress of their ventures.

This is more than just a presentation, it’s the culmination of their hard work, from developing their Minimum Viable Products to testing, refining, and growing their businesses. Each founder will share their journey so far and make the case for why their venture deserves to win.

At stake is £9,500 in grant funding, with £5,000 awarded to the winning pitch, £3,000 for second place, and £1,500 for third place, recognising the three most promising ventures of the evening.

📅 Date and time: Thursday, 25th November 2026, 6:00pm (registering your attendance and networking), 6:30pm to 8:30pm (pitches and networking)
