Description 1.1

Inspire Ipswich is a multi-disciplinary creative centre located in the heart of Ipswich, United Kingdom. This
unique educational facility is set to revolutionise the local creative scene by offering a diverse range of
services and products, including creative workshops, co-working space rentals, studio recordings, AI
education sessions, no code workshops, art lessons, and corporate event days. Our aim is to provide a vibrant
and dynamic space for the creative community in Suffolk to learn, collaborate, and create.

What sets Inspire Ipswich apart is our team of highly skilled and diverse professionals, including master
tattooists, international rock musicians, magicians, painters, AI app developers, and software engineers. This
unique blend of talent allows us to offer a wide range of creative workshops and seminars, specialised artistic
services, and co-working space services. Our location, a historic vault in the centre of Ipswich, provides an
inspiring environment that many of our competitors cannot match.

At Inspire Ipswich, we are not just an educational facility, but also a coworking space for the creative
community. This dual function allows us to foster a vibrant and dynamic community of learners and creators.
We are committed to providing a space where creativity can thrive, and where individuals can learn from and
collaborate with some of the best in the industry.

Technology plays a crucial role in our business model. We plan to develop a unique AI-powered app that
matches individuals with the right creative mentor or workshop based on their interests and skill level. This
innovative approach will enhance the user experience and personalise our services. Additionally, we plan to
implement a digital booking system for our coworking spaces, workshops, and seminars, making it easier for
our community to engage with our services and for us to manage our resources. We also plan to use social
media and digital marketing strategies to showcase the work of our resident artists and musicians, creating a
unique online presence that sets us apart from competitors.

Inspire Ipswich is more than just a business; it's a hub for creativity, innovation, and collaboration. We are
excited to bring this vision to life and to contribute to the vibrant creative scene in Suffolk.

Our Mission & Values 1.2

1.2.1 My Story

Our entrepreneurial journey is a unique blend of diverse experiences, skills, and passions. We are a group of
successful entrepreneurs, ex-venture capitalists, startup founders, and world-renowned artists. Each of us has
a story to tell, a journey that has led us to this point. We've all experienced the thrill of creating something
from nothing, the satisfaction of seeing an idea come to life, and the joy of sharing our passions with others.
But we also recognised a gap, a need for a space where creatives could come together, collaborate, and
inspire each other. That's what motivated us to start Inspire Ipswich.

Our vision for Inspire Ipswich is to create a multidisciplinary creative centre, a hub for artists, musicians,
magicians, software engineers, and more. We've found the perfect location in the heart of Ipswich, a space
with a rich history and plenty of potential. We see it as a canvas, ready to be transformed into a vibrant,
creative community. We're excited about the possibilities, from turning the historic vault into a recording
studio to hosting seminars and workshops for corporate clients. We believe in the power of creativity and
collaboration, and we can't wait to see what our community will create.

We're seeking funding from the UK council to help us realise our vision. We're committed to making Inspire
Ipswich a valuable resource for the Suffolk area, a place where creatives can work, learn, and grow. We're also
passionate about giving back to our community, and we plan to offer a range of educational opportunities,
from seminars and workshops to coworking spaces. We believe that by fostering a creative, collaborative
environment, we can inspire others to pursue their passions, develop their skills, and contribute to our
vibrant community.

Starting Inspire Ipswich is more than just a business venture for us. It's a chance to create something
meaningful, to make a difference in our community, and to inspire others to do the same. We're excited about
the journey ahead, and we can't wait to see where it takes us.

"Through Inspire Ipswich, we aim to weave a tapestry of creativity and

professional image of the business, which may help in attracting clients and investors.
