Is the UK right for you?

GoUK is my free two-minute readiness check for international founders thinking about the UK. Answer a few questions, upload your deck if you like, and get an honest read on where you stand.

Why I built it

I kept answering the same first question.

Five years as a UK Government Dealmaker, more than 30 companies landed, hundreds of first conversations. Almost all of them started the same way: should we even be looking at the UK? I put everything I know into one tool so founders can get that answer in two minutes, before they spend a penny or book a call.

It runs on the same scoring I use in my own assessments: stage, UK fit, validation and readiness. GoUK is mine, not the government's, and it's in beta, so tell me what you think of your score.

Sell

Is there a real UK market for what you do, and does your solution travel?

Raise

Will UK investors back you, and are you the right shape for SEIS and EIS?

Protect

Is your IP safer and better recognised here?

Hire

Can you access the talent and research you can't get at home?

Let's have a conversation.
