History
History
Back in 2013, the London startup industry began growing exponentially and with it the demand for startup consulting services. This represented the perfect business opportunity for a firm like Startup Manufactory. In 2015, as the industry kept growing, many universities launched startup accelerators and needed startup consultants which allowed Startup Manufactory to increase its target market. In 2016, many governments adjusted their policies to the growing startup industry so Startup Manufactory expanded its services into the government sector providing expertise and policy advice to various governmental organisations on startup ecosystem development. In response to a shift in the relationship between the UK and the EU in late 2019, Startup Manufactory took advantage of the political climate, relocated to Ireland in 2020 and expanded its services across the EU.
