Tender: Design and Delivery of Train-the-Trainer Programme for Diverse Angel Syndicates – UK

About

British Business Bank is seeking a supplier for the design, delivery and support of a Train-the-Trainer education programme for angel syndicate leads across the United Kingdom. The programme forms part of the Diverse Angel Syndicate (DAS) Programme, which supports development and sustainability of diversity-focused angel syndicates, broadens participation in angel investing, increases investment into diverse founders and strengthens capability of emerging syndicates across UK nations and regions, with a particular emphasis on new and novice angels. DAS expects to support approximately 10–15 syndicates delivered through three cohorts of up to five syndicates each, in addition to the current cohort of five. Successful applicants will receive financial and non-financial support through the programme; the Bank requires a supplier to upskill syndicate leads so they can deliver consistent, high-quality, modular training to their own members. The anticipated contract may run for up to four years, with an initial, front-loaded phase focused on programme design, content development and early delivery, followed by a lighter-touch model including ongoing support, updates to materials and periodic engagement to maintain quality and relevance. The training should support angel activation and portfolio understanding for new/novice angels, enable syndicates to tailor delivery to their membership, establish a minimum standard of training across supported syndicates and avoid duplication between syndicate development and angel education.
