InnovationRCA

Helping students and graduates transform compelling ideas into successful businesses, our mission is to strengthen the culture of design innovation and entrepreneurialism at the Royal College of Art.

The Higher Education Funding Council for England’s 2015 report Research to Assess the Nature and Annual Value of Student Start-ups, ranked the RCA as having ‘the highest number of student spin-outs with university ownership in recent years in the UK’. The RCA had 14, compared to four at Oxford University, Imperial College London and University College London and two at Cambridge University. This is quite extraordinary, given that the RCA student body is less than 1800 FT students.
