Ventas Central Asks Are Londoners Really so Entrepreneurial?

Due to its size and ever evolving culture, many often assume that London is paving the way for UK entrepreneurship, but is this in fact the case? London based Ventas Central have reviewed the true state of entrepreneurship in the capital.



    LONDON, ENGLAND, October 31, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The UK's capital has long been known as a leading force in start-up activity and has over the years played host to a wide array of exciting and progressive business ventures. This in part, has been supported by London's investment in new business. The city is home to a large percentage of the UK's start up hubs and accelerators, which offer guidance and mentorship to the city's entrepreneurial rising stars. However, whilst London may top the charts when it comes to the volume of new businesses that are launched in the region, this accolade may not be as prominent or significant as it appears. It's estimated that half of UK start-ups fail within their first five years, with the majority even failing to make it past the one-year mark. With this in mind London's ability to produce a large quantity of start-ups seems less impressive and may not be an accurate representation of the state of entrepreneurship in the capital. Instead, the focus should be shifted to whether the city is doing enough to support the survival of these new businesses and help them achieve longevity.

As a London based firm, sales and marketing experts Ventas Central are always interested in London's entrepreneurship community and are eager to find out the truth about the city's start-up scene. After conducting an investigation the firm have uncovered the following truths.

London's Start-ups are struggling to Find Customers: Despite having one of the UK's most diverse markets at their disposal, obtaining customers is the biggest barrier standing in the way of entrepreneurial success.

The Cost of Living is a Driving Force behind Entrepreneurship: Nearly half of Londoners own or have plans to own their own business and increase their earnings, compared to 37% in the rest of the UK.

Londoners are fiercely Independent: Whether it be due to the fast-paced, often unfriendly city environment or not, the majority of Londoners wishing to start their own business have claimed the biggest draw to be the opportunity to be their own boss and make it on their own.
Ventas Central also found that London based entrepreneurs believe it is now easier than ever to start a business, however many agree that these resources and support need to extend far beyond the initial launch.
