MIT REAP-UK Survey of Entrepreneurs and Regional Entrepreneurial Capacity

9th July 2020

Sheffield City Region is delighted to be participating in a regional entrepreneurship acceleration programme with Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

The aim of this programme is to shape future strategies and actions to help with economic recovery after the COVID-19 crisis, and especially to accelerate innovation-driven entrepreneurship in our region. More detail about the programme is available here.

One of the tasks is to speak to the region’s entrepreneurs to gain insights into how Covid-19 has impacted businesses, what running a business is like in SCR, what barriers there are to growth, and how innovative our region is. This is where you come in. We’d really appreciate about 15 minutes of your time to complete this survey.
