Meet the Team

At CMP, we're more than an educational charity; we're a catalyst for change. Our mission? To equip and inspire future leaders to unite and solve the problems that touch all our lives. Through our 'Hacking 4' (H4) courses, accredited by universities, we teach Lean Start-up methods and nurture an ecosystem of mission-driven talent. It's about diving deep into real challenges, bringing together the UK Government, Academia, and Industry to focus on the problem, not just the solution. By shaking up traditional education and opening doors to entrepreneurship, CMP is crafting the problem-solvers of the future, today.
