The Bristol SetSquared Centre, an incubation program that specialises in growing technology spinouts and university startups, has appointed Monika Gierszewska as its new director.
Bristol SetSquared is one of the centres operated by SetSquared, a collaboration between the universities of Bristol, Bath, Exeter, Southampton and Surrey.
Gierszewska began her role this week. She previously served as senior program manager at Entiq, a company that establishes connections between tech innovation, entrepreneurship and economic development.
She has also worked for EntrepreneurCountry Global, which connects businesses to startups, and management consultancy Cognizant Technology Solutions.
In November 2015 SetSquared was named as the world’s top university incubator.
Gierszewska said: “I am thrilled to be joining the world’s best university business incubator, and look forward to working with a team of such high calibre. Bristol hosts an exceptionally vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem and I am delighted, that in this exciting role, I will be able to contribute to its growth.”
