As a partnering college, students from any department are invited to pitch an entrepreneurial idea or venture for a chance to win from the Β£20,000 prize funding pot, and receive support to help turn your idea into a reality, or build up your existing venture.

There are also a series of workshops available with expert mentors to help build new skills to enhance your career.

All-Innovate aims to encourage all students, regardless of discipline, to develop an entrepreneurial skill set and generate entrepreneurial ideas. Inclusivity and diversity are at the forefront of its ethos.

We look forward to hearing your great ideas!

How do I enter?

Contact naomi.benson@gtc.ox.ac.uk for the application form.

You will need to complete the application form and record a short two-minute video about your pitch in the first round.

This year, all applicants are offered the opportunity to attend virtual idea development workshops.

The deadline for Trinity applications is Sunday 6 June 2021.

What are the prizes?

This year, there are two competition rounds across Hilary and Trinity, so double the chance of winning!

Details about who won the Hilary term All-Innovate prizes can be found here.

In Trinity, there will be a top prize of Β£10,000 for the best idea and then two further prizes of Β£5,000 each for the best undergraduate and best graduate ideas.

How the competition works

Judges will shortlist their top two applications from each college. Feedback will be given to all entrants.

Important dates

  • Thursday 10 to Friday 11 June: Ideas bootcamp for all applicants.
  • Monday 14 June:Β Selection bootcamp, final ten teams announced
  • Thursday 1 July: Trinity final and winners announced

Your entry will be judged on the idea itself as opposed to how developed the idea is.

What are the judging criteria?

  • What is the problem that your idea is helping to solve?
  • How well does your idea address the problem?
  • Strength of team
  • Potential viability of the idea
  • Quality of application

How do I attend a workshop?

All-Innovate is accompanied by Idea Exploration, Design Thinking and Creativity workshops with experienced mentors, to help build new skills and enhance careers.

These are optional workshops that also offer early stage idea support. Details of these workshops can be found on the Oxford Foundry website.
