Published 25/03/2025

Cloud CEO Jeff Dewing is to speak at this year’s Enterprise Accelerator Festival – a week-long online conference between 12 and 16 May 2025.

As a bestselling author and podcaster, Jeff will be telling the stories of “The Mistakes I Made Along the Way: Stories from Successful Entrepreneurs.”
He also believes passionately in supporting his colleagues to fail fast and not to let the fear of making mistakes hold back their ingenuity.

Jeff will be sharing the biggest lessons he’s learned (the hard way!) and why culture is the ultimate game-changer when it comes to building a thriving, purpose-led business.

The Festival will unite the brightest minds from government, business, the non-profit sector and education for networking and learning through an engaging line-up of 13 inspiring lectures and panel discussions on the following topics:

Fundraising: for many entrepreneurs, success and failure depends on gaining access to finance. Experts will provide insights into how enterprise incubators can help their businesses access the capital they need to grow. Attendees will hear from investors, entrepreneurs that have raised millions, and experts that can explain how to use hacks like SEIS to secure investment.

Hacking business incubation: a series of talks and events on how to create effective business and entrepreneurship incubation and accelerator programmes.

Learning from other sectors: the Festival will allow attendees to benefit from the learnings and methods of other sectors through networking and events. Those in commercial enterprises will hear how universities, charities and local government incubate multi-million-pound businesses, whilst the public sector will be able to learn from those in the private sector.

Building Social Enterprises: sessions on supporting under represented entrepreneurs and how to create social entrepreneurs and incubate social enterprises.

What can governments do to foster entrepreneurship: sessions exploring the role of government and local authorities in driving enterprise and innovation.
