Our Incubator Package

We help Britain’s creative talent create thriving businesses…

If you are a talented designer-maker and you are looking to grow your business you have come to the right place. As a business incubator, we offer more than just affordable creative workspace. We have an experienced on-site team, offering an array of support services to help accelerate the successful development of your business.

We take a holistic approach and our incubator is specifically tailored to help designer-makers who want to increase their profit whilst developing creatively. You can tap into what you need, when you need it and as we are a social enterprise, our services are provided as a package below commercial rates.

Having a studio at Cockpit Arts is a recognised benchmark of excellence in creativity and craftsmanship and with our business support, designer-makers profits at Cockpit have increased year-on-year at an average of 25% (above the rate of inflation) since we started measuring in 2005.

Much of our Making It Programme is also available to external designer-makers, not based at our incubators.
