Management and Entrepreneurship

Cranfield School of Management is known for being close to business. For 50 years, we have been working with leading companies across the globe, pursuing our mission to improve the practice of management.

Cranfield School of Management is one of the most entrepreneurial universities in Britain. Our entrepreneurship offering embraces research, teaching, entrepreneurship events and networks, technology transfer and business incubation. We support owner-managers to launch and grow their businesses, we teach students to write business plans and to understand how investors make decisions, and we help our researchers to convert technology breakthroughs into commercial success.

Our innovation ‘hot spot’ around Milton Keynes exploits Cranfield’s proximity to the UK’s capital city and its major airports, and our location within the innovation triangle between London, Oxford and Cambridge. Here, we have created an environment which enables companies to form, locate and grow with knowledge from one of the UK’s most business-engaged universities.

You will have access to ongoing support including the Cranfield Entrepreneurship Association, Cranfield Accelerator Network for Entrepreneurs, Cranfield Business Angel Network, and the Cranfield Business Incubation Unit.

Through our entrepreneurship network, business incubator, open innovation centres, technology park, and entrepreneurship research centre, we have created a distinctive entrepreneurship eco-system at Cranfield. Inspired by this, many of our students and alumni go on to create and manage high performing new ventures and to act as innovators within organisations.
