StEP Ignite, the University of Oxford's Student Entrepreneurship Programme, provides students with access to University research projects and challenges them to identify an idea for a new business, develop a business plan, and prepare to pitch in front of real investors – in just four weeks. Teams compete for £25,000 in investment, alongside support from Oxford Science Enterprises and Oxford University Innovation to help turn their idea into a commercial business. Launched in 2019, the programme was developed by Oxford University Innovation (OUI), Oxford Science Enterprises (OSE), and the Saïd Business School. Previous winners include Quantum Dice, a fast-growing quantum technology start-up focused on technology to future proof the security of information.
