Facilitator presenting to founders during a GuessWorks accelerator workshop

Accelerator programmes are only as good as the support inside them. We work with your cohort - practically, honestly, and at pace - to help founders move faster, get unstuck, and make better decisions under pressure.

Your founders are already building. Let’s help them build better.

  • We’ve done it ourselves.

    Every coach and facilitator in our network has founded something, invested in something, or led innovation inside a big organisation. Founders notice the difference.

  • We make it usable now.

    No frameworks that take three weeks to implement. Every session ends with something founders can act on before the next one. That’s the whole point.

  • We design around your cohort.

    We find out what your founders are actually struggling with and build around that. Every programme is different because every cohort is different.

Some of the most innovative founders often think differently. Our sessions are built with neuroinclusion at the heart - from how challenges are framed to how feedback is structured. We design for the way founders actually think, not the way training assumes they do.

Design for every kind of mind.

We help founders understand what AI means for their business and build the distinctly human skills that give them the edge - leading a team, making decisions under pressure, bringing investors with them, adapting when the plan falls apart. The skills that matter more as the world changes, not less.

Human skills in an AI world.

How we work with accelerators

Coaches, EiRs & Expert Pool

Embed our experts into your programme as Entrepreneurs and Investors in Residence - supporting your cohort throughout, or brought in for specific topic deep dives. Specialists in funding, go-to-market, branding, business model innovation, and more.

Workshops & Topic Deep Dives

One-off sessions or a full series running alongside your programme. Customer discovery, business model design, fundraising, go-to-market strategy, pitching and more - all hands-on, all immediately applicable. Good for specific skill gaps or as a backbone for a full programme.

Growth Groups

Small groups of up to 8 founders, meeting regularly with expert facilitation to work through real challenges together. One of our most distinctive offers - structured peer support that keeps momentum going long after the formal programme ends.

1:1 Founder Coaching

Going deep with individual founders on whatever is actually blocking them - from confidence and imposter syndrome to specific strategic decisions. Sometimes a cohort session isn’t enough. This is where momentum really builds. We meet founders exactly where they are, then help them get unstuck fast.

How strong is your cohort experience really?

A few honest questions about engagement, facilitation and outcomes. You get a score and the two or three things most worth fixing first. Free, and no email needed to start.

Some of our most popular topics

These are examples - each area covers multiple workshops and sessions, and we can go as deep as your cohort needs.

  • "I have been working with GuessWorks for a couple of years now, and they've become our absolute go-to for supporting our entrepreneur programs. We've used them across a range of topics relevant to startups, from business fundamentals to marketing and sales and beyond. Every session has been a hit."

    Judy Yang, Partnerships Specialist, INCO

  • "They worked collaboratively with our team, communicated effectively throughout the process, and delivered to a high standard within agreed timelines. Their expertise and proactive approach added significant value to the event, and we would not hesitate to work with GuessWorks again in the future."

    Kostis Vrettos, Head of Events, CodeBase

  • "Guessworks create highly collaborative, engaging sessions where participants feel comfortable contributing and asking questions. They have a real talent for breaking down complex financial and strategic topics into accessible, actionable insights. We’ve received consistently great feedback from founders, particularly around the clarity and confidence they gained from working with Guessworks."

    Mina Begum, Growth Partner, Plexal

  • “It’s always a pleasure working with GuessWorks. Their speakers bring energy, expertise, and genuinely useful insights - particularly through their funding sessions, which help our founders understand the different pathways available and choose what’s right for their businesses.”
