Akcela

After 3 years of running my own business I was looking to increase my market potential and how to be effective in the day to day running.I got in touch with Akcela and after speaking to James they fully investigated my company ,working practices as well as marketing plans.A detailed report was then generated giving advice and support on how to reach my goals with the business.Moving forward I now have clear plans on how to reach my goals with the business.James was very helpful and knowledgeable and also made me look at ways of doing things differently to make the business more productive,I would recommend business owners to get in touch with Akecla.

A cool coworking space in Norwich with a startup incubator at the heart? Yup. It finally exists. Only been waiting 5 years for this kind of thing to crop up. Norwich is a great city but the startup ecosystem is seriously lacking.We've needed a central hub for the startup ecosystem for a long time. Now there is one. Tucked into Fuel Studios (which is actually a really nice place) is Akcela Ventures—runs a startup incubator with coworking space for people in the startup ecosystem.I've had a desk since day one. Been a huge game changer for my working life. WFH sucks!

James and Matt from Akcela came on board at Readingmate Ltd in our post launch phase. They have already proved themselves to be crucial partners in our venture, provoking targeted and essential conversations the existing team didn't even know we needed to have!The biggest compliment I can give them is that through their hardwork, great ideas and (most importantly) genuine love and enthusiasm for our project. I now can't ever imagine a time when they weren't involved!If you are reading this and are thinking that you need help with your business, look no further. You won't find a better, more professional or valuable team.

After launching my own business last year, I needed some advice on next steps for the business, to scale up and grow. Someone recommended I speak with James; we had a great conversation about my current situation and I got some valuable guidance. James took the time to explain his advice clearly and gave some open and honest feedback, that I already know will support the business moving forward.

Establishing a not-for-profit startup in the climate of the pandemic has been challenging. However, joining the Akcela incubator program has offered invaluable support and extremely knowledgeable consultancy, helping to steer the business to investment and beyond.

It's a great location in the heart of Norwich. Nearby parking. Really good area for working as a freelance, and if you want to launch a startup, James @ Akcela is your incubator man! :-)

It has been a real joy to start working at the Akcela co-working space. There are a great bunch of friendly and interesting startups and people working here, and table tennis at lunchtime is a daily highlight!I have also received value-add advice and feedback from the Akcela team, and it's great to be amongst other growing and impactful businesses. I would highly recommend becoming part of this vibrant space!

Fantastic location, awesome vibe, great people. Since being here we've raised over half a million dollars, met with countless VCs, attended socials and broadened our network. Workspace is open and relaxed, and communal space is fully equipped and has table tennis and fußball tables.

I really cannot recommend James and his team enough. If you're looking to develop yourself and or your business then James and Akcela are an excellent choice.I have worked with James in-directly for many years on and off & I can honestly say that his business and management consultancy experience & skills are un-rivalled, but what really makes James and his progressive, new world business so special is how they quickly grasp the wants and needs of each individual case and then deliver solid, tangible and easily applicable solutions, time after time.If you are looking for a reliable, trust worthy and effective business consultancy then ring Akcela... You will not regret it!

I had a consultation with James from Akcela and his professional but honest review was something I needed. He impressed me with his value added advice within the 45 minute call we had and will look to use there service in the not to distant future to drive my new start up business forward.
