The Verve Foundation is continuing its Adviser Incubator programme, running 4 cohorts in 2024.
The programme comprises weekly core sessions covering a range of topics, from business planning to regulatory considerations, with regular additional sessions covering topics such as cyber security, regular mentoring, desk space, and a strong community.
The Foundation is supported by Royal London and Parmenion.
The programme offers two different options depending on what stage the business is at. A full 12-week programme is designed for those who are already authorised or in the process of obtaining authorisation and confident they’ll receive the go ahead. This covers both direct authorisation and appointed representatives.
A mini 7-week programme is for those who are thinking of setting up their own business and want to know more about the options. This is designed to give all the information and support needed to make a decision, without having to take the leap first.
Those who go through the mini programme will be invited to join a future full programme cohort when they’re ready to launch their business, to feel the full benefit of the support from The Verve Foundation.
Applications can be made here. This current cohort application process close on 17th January, with the cohort starting on 31st January. The programme is completely free of charge.
Hayley Rabbets, head of The Verve Foundation, said: “Following the huge success of the programme during its first year, we’re delighted to be returning this year with even more opportunities to support new and early-stage advice businesses.
“We can’t thank our partners Royal London & Parmenion enough for their continued support. They backed us right from idea stage right the way through to three successful cohorts. We’re super excited to be working with them again this year.”
