SME Ninja

Run the programme. Prove the impact.

How programme funders, sponsors and accelerators use SME Ninja with cohorts of innovative companies: from calls for applications to outcomes collected long after the cohort ends.

What programmes use

  • Calls for applications

    Eligibility questions, assessor panels and decisions, in one place.

  • Cohorts

    Every company’s stage and progress in one table, with tools assigned to companies with due dates.

  • Challenge programmes

    Sponsors commission solutions to real business challenges from innovative SMEs.

  • Outcomes and impact

    A theory of change, versioned indicators and returns collected for up to 24 months, checked against Companies House and UKRI’s Gateway to Research.

  • Satisfaction surveys

    Short anonymous surveys, reported only in groups of five or more.

  • White-labelled spaces

    An innovation space in your own brand, with your own themes and a board report.

Why programmes choose it

  1. Evidence, not claims

    Companies reassess every six months and their history is versioned, so progress is shown rather than asserted.

  2. Advisers in the loop

    Assigned advisers and mentors review companies’ work and meet them inside their workspace.

  3. Built to be trusted

    Hosted in London, accessible to WCAG 2.2 AA, every company’s data kept separate and an audit log of what happens.
