About

Leeds City Council awarded a contract to Startup Sherpas Education Limited for a project engaging 200 young people aged 13-25 in paid work experience focused on the green economy.

The project used 25-minute timeboxed missions with step-by-step instructions, and all work was uploaded to a platform for analysis and tracking.

Participants gained work experience and references for their CVs while being exposed to green economy industries.

They created an open-sourced dataset made available to the Leeds ecosystem, from startups to established companies.

The work was analyzed to identify trends and create action plans, forming a Blueprint for the city to use in future projects and proposals and to inform policy.

Recruitment took place over 3 weeks from Monday 6th March 2023, with 8x 4-hour sessions per week running from Monday 27th March to Friday 5th March 2023.

The Blueprint was available from June 2023.

The contract value was £85,000, with £24,000 directly paid back into the Leeds economy.
