'More Than Profit' is a new social enterprise programme led by Student Enterprise and Employability (SEE) and centre of Design for Social Innovation and Sustainability (UAL DESIS Lab), in partnership with UK social enterprise charity UnLtd. More Than Profit is supporting and funding UAL student and graduate social entrepreneurs and seeks to create and embed a culture of social enterprise and innovation across the University. Any student and recent graduate (up to 3 years) with a ‘more than profit’ social enterprise business idea can apply for a combination of funding support and wider business support in the form of business mentoring, financial advice, legal and intellectual property advice to get their social enterprise idea or proposal off the ground.

The aim of this platform is to allow students, graduates, staff and external stakeholders and contributors to join the 'More Than Profit' community; and will be the primary platform for the community to share resources and information, receive alerts on the programme and relevant topics, find out about new social enterprises, ask and answer questions.
