Unlocked Expertise
For partners · programmes · public sector

Deliver mentoring at scale. Without building the platform.

Unlocked is the operating layer for funded and member-driven business support. A curated network, the platform to run it, and reporting your funders will recognise.

Suited to
  • Local & combined authorities
  • Growth & accelerator programmes
  • Member networks (FSB, IoD, trade bodies)
  • Funded innovation cohorts
  • Universities & enterprise hubs
What you get

Four parts of the offer, fully integrated.

You can absolutely build pieces of this in-house. Most partners do not — the cost, the delivery time and the ongoing maintenance never quite end.

  • A curated mentor network

    Two hundred operators, founders, NEDs and specialists built over a decade through The Experience Bank. Quality is verified at onboarding and refreshed continuously.
  • Delivery infrastructure on day one

    Matching, scheduling, sessions, messaging, payouts, GDPR, audit trail. You do not build any of this — and you do not pay your time to keep it running.
  • Programme controls and credits

    Fund cohorts, allocate credits, set caps per business and per programme. Mentor pools can be ring-fenced or shared across regions.
  • Reporting that closes the loop

    Cohort activity, hours delivered, outcome surveys, spend, mentor coverage — exportable and ready for funder reporting.
Programmes

From a single cohort to a regional rollout.

We have run pilots, member programmes and combined-authority models. Each one is shaped to the funder, the businesses and the mentor pool — but the platform is the same.

  • NatWest Accelerator Newcastle21 businesses · 14 mentors · 136 hoursPilot complete. Mentors deployed across pricing, growth, hiring, fundraising and ops.
  • Combined-authority growth programmesProposed: 25 businesses × 48 weeksModel: ring-fenced credits, regional mentor coverage, dual-funded delivery.
  • Member networks · trade bodiesMember benefit, white-label optionOffer mentoring as a benefit; we operate the network and the platform under your brand.
Finding the right fit is genuinely game-changing, particularly for a start-up where you're often navigating so much without a roadmap.
