Guernsey's Digital Greenhouse Set for Private Sector Takeover
19 Sep
Summary
- Guernsey's Digital Greenhouse is transitioning to private sector leadership.
- A formal bid process is planned for October to find a new operator.
- The committee aims to turbo-charge innovation and entrepreneurial support.
Guernsey's committee is dedicated to ensuring world-class support for entrepreneurs and fostering innovation across all industries.
There is significant early interest in building upon the legacy of the Digital Greenhouse, with the aim of creating an independently run, commercially sustainable organization.
The committee plans to continue its open engagement throughout September before publishing a formal bid in October. This bid will allow interested parties to apply to take over the management of the centre.
They believe that a government-run incubator has limitations and that private sector leadership can bring more dynamism, agility, and lived experience, ultimately proving more effective. This initiative is seen as a way to enhance, not abandon, support for entrepreneurs.
