A new United Kingdom-based accelerator and incubator of early-stage ethical start-ups will kick off at the end of this year that promises to take nothing in return from the companies it develops.

It will be helmed by CEO Suki Fuller, who holds several roles in the UK and beyond, most notably as founder and managing director of the strategic and competitive intelligence company Miribure, and mentor at the MassChallenge accelerator and competition, which operates a zero percent equity model.
It was MassChallenge that brought Rob and Fuller together.
