Innovator Founder Programme Terms.

1.1What these terms cover. These IFP Terms set out the legally binding agreement under which you participate in the Innovator Founder Programme (the "IFP" or the "Programme") delivered by Infinitum Education Limited.

1.2Why you should read them. Please read these IFP Terms carefully before applying for, or accepting an offer of a place on, the Programme. These IFP Terms tell you, in particular: how applications are accepted; what you pay and when; what happens if you cancel, defer, or miss sessions; and the limits of what the Programme can and cannot do, including its relationship to the UK Innovator Founder Visa.

1.3Relationship with our master Website Terms. These IFP Terms are the "specific terms which govern and are applicable to an Infinitum Education Product" referred to in clause 4.2(a) of our master Website Terms of Service. The provisions of the master Website Terms of Service apply to the Programme except where expressly modified or supplemented by these IFP Terms.

2.1Who we are. We are Infinitum Education Limited (we, us, our or "Infinitum Education"), a company registered in England and Wales. Our company registration number is 10609324 and our registered office is at 128 City Road, London, EC1V 2NX, United Kingdom.

2.2What the IFP is. The IFP is an eight-week hybrid educational and developmental programme designed to support founders in building venture rigour, strategic capability, and submission readiness. The Programme is delivered through a combination of live online sessions, in-person workshops in Oxford and London, mentorship, peer-to-peer cohort work, and a culminating pitch event.

2.3What the IFP is not. The IFP is not a visa application service, an immigration advice service, an endorsing body, or a guarantee of any commercial, fundraising, immigration, or business outcome. See clause 12 for further important disclaimers.

3.1Minimum age. The IFP is open only to applicants who are at least 18 years old at the date of application. This overrides clause 4.8 of our master Website Terms of Service in respect of the Programme.

3.2Selection at our discretion. Acceptance to the Programme is at our sole discretion. Submitting an expression of interest, completing a discovery call, completing the application form, or attending an interview does not entitle you to a place or oblige us to make an offer. We may accept or decline any applicant for any reason and are under no obligation to disclose those reasons. Clause 4.5 of our master Website Terms of Service applies.

3.3Misrepresentation. We rely on the information you provide in your application and discovery call. If we discover that any information you provide is materially false, misleading, or incomplete, we may withdraw any offer made, end any contract formed, and (where applicable) retain a proportion of any fees paid as compensation for our reasonable costs.

4.1Stages of selection. The selection process for the Programme typically comprises the following stages, although we may modify or shorten the process at our discretion:

• Stage 1: Initial expression of interest via the IFP enquiry form;
• Stage 2: A discovery call with a member of the Infinitum Education team;
• Stage 3: Submission of the full application form (by invitation only, sent to those candidates we identify as a strong fit during or after Stage 2);
• Stage 4: An offer of a place, if successful (clause 5).

4.2No contract until offer accepted. No contract comes into existence between you and us at any point before the formal acceptance of an offer in accordance with clause 5. Until that point, we may withdraw, modify, or extend the application or selection process without liability.

5.1Our offer. If your application is successful, we will issue you a written offer of a place (the "Offer Letter"). The Offer Letter will state, at minimum: the Programme cohort, the start date, the total fee, and the payment terms applicable to you.

5.2Offer Validity Period. Each offer is valid for seven (7) calendar days from the date the Offer Letter is sent, unless we expressly extend this period in writing. This overrides the three-day Offer Validity Period in clause 4.4 of our master Website Terms of Service in respect of the Programme. After the Offer Validity Period the offer lapses and we are free to allocate the place elsewhere.

5.3When the contract comes into existence. A binding contract between you and us comes into existence only when both of the following have occurred within the Offer Validity Period:

• You have notified us in writing (including by email) that you accept the Offer Letter; and
• You have paid, in cleared funds, the total fee stated in the Offer Letter, or such deposit or instalment as we have expressly agreed with you in writing in accordance with clause 6.

5.4Place not reserved until contract formed. Until both events in clause 5.3 have occurred, no place is reserved for you. Cohorts are limited and places are allocated on a first-confirmed basis.

6.1Fees. The fee for the Programme is set out in your Offer Letter. The Founding Cohort fee is £15,000 per founder. The standard fee from Cohort 2 onwards is £25,000 per founder, in each case subject to any specific terms in your Offer Letter.

6.2Payment in full as the default. Unless we have expressly agreed otherwise with you in writing, the total fee stated in your Offer Letter is payable in full in cleared funds within the Offer Validity Period as a condition of contract formation under clause 5.3(b).

6.3Discretionary deposit and instalment arrangements. At our sole discretion, on a case-by-case basis, we may agree with you in writing in the Offer Letter (or in a subsequent written agreement) an alternative payment arrangement comprising a deposit and one or more instalments. Where we agree such an arrangement:

• The deposit is payable within the Offer Validity Period as a condition of contract formation under clause 5.3(b);
• Each subsequent instalment is payable on the dates set out in the Offer Letter or written agreement;
• The deposit and each instalment paid is non-refundable on and after the expiry of the 14-day Cancellation Period under clause 7, save where prohibited by law or where we cancel under clause 8.4;
• Failure to pay any instalment by its due date entitles us to suspend your access to the Programme, accelerate the balance, and/or end the contract under clause 12.1(a) of the master Website Terms of Service.

6.4VAT. All fees are stated inclusive of any applicable VAT. Clause 8.2 of our master Website Terms of Service applies in respect of any change in VAT rates.

6.5Late payment. If you fail to pay any sum due by the date stated in your Offer Letter, we may: (a) charge interest in accordance with clause 8.5 of the master Website Terms of Service; (b) suspend your access to the Programme until payment is made in full; and/or (c) end the contract under clause 12.1(a) of the master Website Terms of Service.

6.6Method of payment. Fees must be paid by the methods specified in your Offer Letter. Payments by cash or cryptocurrency are not accepted.

6.7Costs not included. Unless expressly stated in your Offer Letter, fees do not include: travel, accommodation, subsistence, visa fees, immigration advice fees, the costs of any third-party software, or any other personal costs you may incur in connection with attending or completing the Programme. See clause 11 below.

7.1Your right to change your mind. Under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, you have a statutory right to cancel the contract within fourteen (14) calendar days of the date the contract comes into existence under clause 5.3 (the "Cancellation Period"), as referenced in clause 11.4 of our master Website Terms of Service.

7.2Express consent to begin services within the Cancellation Period. In many cases the Programme — including pre-cohort onboarding, access to materials, and live sessions — will begin within the 14-day Cancellation Period. By accepting the Offer and paying the deposit, you may be asked to give your express consent for us to begin providing services and digital content during the Cancellation Period and to expressly acknowledge that, as a result, you will lose your statutory right to cancel under regulation 36 of the 2013 Regulations and clauses 11.5 and 11.6 of our master Website Terms of Service.

7.3If you cancel during the Cancellation Period before any services have been provided. You are entitled to a full refund of all sums paid.

7.4If you cancel during the Cancellation Period after some services have been provided. You must pay us a proportionate amount for the services supplied up to the time you tell us that you have changed your mind, in accordance with clause 11.6 of our master Website Terms of Service.

7.5How to cancel. To exercise your right to cancel, please notify us in writing at contact@infinitumeducation.com using the Model Cancellation Form (Schedule to the master Website Terms of Service) or any other clear written statement of cancellation.

8.1No refund after the Cancellation Period. If you cancel, withdraw, or otherwise end the contract on or after the expiry of the 14-day Cancellation Period under clause 7, no refund of any sums paid will be made and any unpaid sums (including all remaining instalments) become immediately due and payable.

8.2Compensation for our reasonable costs and lost opportunity. We are entitled to retain all sums paid as compensation for our reasonable administrative costs, the resources committed to your place (including faculty allocation, materials production, and in-person event commitments), and the lost opportunity to allocate your place to another applicant. The fees reflect a genuine pre-estimate of the loss we suffer on cancellation and are not a penalty.

8.3Cancellation by us. We may end the contract in the circumstances set out in clause 12 of the master Website Terms of Service, including for non-payment, breach, or misrepresentation. Where we cancel for reasons set out in clause 11.3 of the master Website Terms of Service (including, for example, our inability to deliver the Programme), you will receive a full refund of fees paid.

9.1Deferral request. You may, in writing, request to defer your place to the next available cohort, subject to availability and at our sole discretion.

9.2Deferral administration fee. A deferral administration fee of £1,000 is payable in cleared funds before any deferral is confirmed. We may, at our sole discretion, waive this fee in exceptional circumstances.

9.3Limits on deferral. You may defer once only. The deferred place must be taken in the next available cohort within six (6) months of your original Programme start date. If the deferred place is not taken within that period, the place is forfeited and no refund will be made.

9.4Fee for the deferred cohort. Where the fee for the cohort to which you defer is higher than the fee originally agreed in your Offer Letter, you must pay the difference so that your total payment matches the published fee for the deferred cohort. The difference is payable in line with the deferred cohort's payment schedule. No refund will be made where the fee for the deferred cohort is lower.

10.1Attendance expectation. Founders are expected to attend all live sessions (online and in-person) and to complete all coursework, mentorship, and cohort activities. Recordings, if and where available, are provided as a supplement to live attendance, not a substitute for it.

10.2Missed sessions. No refund, credit, or compensation will be given for any session, workshop, or event that you do not attend.

10.3Removal from the Programme. We reserve the right to remove a founder from the Programme without refund where, in our reasonable opinion:

• the founder has demonstrated sustained or material non-attendance;
• the founder has breached these IFP Terms or the master Website Terms of Service, including (without limitation) the Content Standards in clause 6 of the master Website Terms of Service;
• the founder's conduct disrupts the cohort, faculty, guests, or the wider learning environment, or brings or risks bringing Infinitum Education into disrepute;
• the founder has failed to pay any sum due under these IFP Terms within fourteen (14) calendar days of the due date;
• the founder has materially misrepresented information in the application or selection process.

10.4Effect of removal. On removal under clause 10.3, no refund will be issued and any unpaid balance becomes immediately due. Removal does not affect any other rights or remedies we may have.

11.1In-person components. The Programme includes in-person workshops in Oxford and London. The number, dates, and locations of in-person sessions are indicative and may be changed in line with clause 13 below.

11.2Your responsibility. You are responsible for organising and paying for your own travel, accommodation, subsistence, visas, insurance, and any other costs in connection with attending in-person sessions, in line with clause 10.5 of the master Website Terms of Service. We do not have knowledge of your personal circumstances and so cannot advise you of the requirements that will apply to your travel.

11.3Visa for in-person attendance. If you require a visa to enter the United Kingdom or to attend in-person sessions in the UK, it is your sole responsibility to obtain it. We do not provide letters of invitation or other documentation for the purposes of visa applications except at our discretion and on a case-by-case basis. Failure to obtain the necessary visa to attend in-person sessions does not entitle you to a refund.

11.4Rescheduled or relocated events. We may, for reasons within or outside our control, reschedule, relocate, or move in-person sessions online. We will give as much notice as reasonably practicable. We are not liable for any travel, accommodation, or other costs you incur as a result of such changes, in line with clauses 10.4, 13.3, and 14 of the master Website Terms of Service.

11.5Your conduct at in-person events. You must conduct yourself in accordance with the rules of any venue we use and in accordance with these IFP Terms and the master Website Terms of Service. We reserve the right to refuse entry to or remove from any in-person event any person whose conduct, in our reasonable opinion, is inappropriate, disruptive, unsafe, or in breach of these IFP Terms.

12.1Educational programme only. The Programme is an educational and developmental programme. It is not, and must not be relied upon as: (a) a visa application service; (b) immigration advice; (c) an endorsement service; or (d) any form of guarantee of any visa, immigration, or commercial outcome.

12.2We are not an endorsing body or immigration adviser. Infinitum Education is not a Home Office authorised endorsing body for the UK Innovator Founder Visa. We are not authorised to provide immigration advice under the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999. Nothing said or written by Infinitum Education or its faculty, staff, mentors, or guest contributors constitutes immigration advice.

12.3No guarantee of endorsement, visa, or business outcome. Completion of the Programme does not guarantee, and must not be taken to imply:

• endorsement by any UK Home Office authorised endorsing body;
• the grant of the UK Innovator Founder Visa or any other visa or leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom;
• any specific outcome with respect to your business, fundraising, customers, revenue, jobs created, valuation, or growth.

12.4Independent decisions. All endorsement decisions are made independently by the relevant endorsing body, and all visa decisions are made independently by the UK Home Office. We have no influence over, and accept no responsibility for, any such decisions.

12.5You must obtain independent immigration advice. You must obtain your own independent immigration advice from a qualified solicitor or an OISC-regulated immigration adviser before relying on the Programme for any purpose connected with a visa or immigration application. We strongly recommend you do so before accepting an offer of a place.

12.6References to the IFV are informational only. Any references on our website, marketing materials, social media, application materials, or in Programme sessions to the Innovator Founder Visa, endorsing bodies, the Home Office, immigration routes, or visa criteria are for general informational and educational purposes only. They do not constitute immigration advice and should not be relied upon as such.

12.7No reliance. You acknowledge that you are not entering the contract in reliance upon any representation, warranty, or undertaking by us as to any visa, immigration, endorsement, business, financial, or commercial outcome.

13.1Indicative content. The Programme content, schedule, faculty, mentors, guest contributors, in-person event dates and locations, and other details published on our website, in our marketing materials, and in our application materials are indicative and may change. The actual content of the Programme is determined at our sole discretion in line with clause 10.1 of the master Website Terms of Service.

13.2Minor changes. We may make minor changes to the Programme in line with clause 9.3 of the master Website Terms of Service. These will not affect your participation.

13.3Significant changes. If we make any significant change to the Programme — for example, a material reduction in scope, a substantial change to the dates of in-person events, or a change in the principal location of in-person delivery — we will notify you. You may then contact us to end the contract, in which case we will refund any fees paid in respect of services not yet provided. This is in line with clause 9.4 of the master Website Terms of Service.

14.1Our IP. All Programme content, including but not limited to slides, frameworks, templates, recorded sessions, written materials, exercises, and software, remains our intellectual property or the intellectual property of our licensors. Clause 5 of the master Website Terms of Service applies. You receive a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use such materials for your own personal educational use only.

14.2Your IP and your venture. You retain all intellectual property rights in your own business, business plan, financial model, products, brand, and any other outputs that you create in respect of your own venture during the Programme. Infinitum Education claims no ownership of, and no rights in, your venture.

14.3Application of programme learnings. Nothing in these IFP Terms or in the master Website Terms of Service — including clause 14.2(b) of the master Website Terms of Service which restricts use of Infinitum Education Products for commercial or business purposes — prevents you from applying what you learn in the Programme to building your own venture. The restriction in master clause 14.2(b) is intended to prevent the redistribution, resale, or sub-licensing of our content; it does not restrict your application of programme learnings to your own business.

14.4Use of your name and venture in case studies. We may, with your prior written consent (which may be granted via a separate consent form), refer to you and your venture in our marketing and case study materials. Without such consent, we will not use your name, image, likeness, or company branding in public-facing marketing.

15.1Chatham House rule. The Programme operates on a Chatham House basis. Information shared by other founders, faculty, mentors, or guest contributors during sessions is confidential and must not be disclosed outside the cohort, attributed to a specific individual or company, or used for any commercial purpose other than your own learning, without the prior written consent of the person or organisation concerned.

15.2Our confidential information. You must keep confidential any information about Infinitum Education's Programme content, methodology, financials, faculty arrangements, and other operational details that is not in the public domain.

15.3Breach. Breach of confidentiality is a material breach of these IFP Terms and may result in removal from the Programme under clause 10.3 without refund and/or other legal action.

16.1Session recordings. Live sessions, whether delivered online or in person, may be recorded for the educational benefit of the cohort. By participating in the Programme, you consent to being recorded in audio and video form during sessions. Recordings will be made available only to enrolled members of the relevant cohort and faculty unless we obtain your separate consent under clause 16.3 to use them more widely.

16.2Photography at events. Photography and video capture may take place during in-person events and online sessions for documentary, educational, and (subject to clause 16.3) marketing purposes. If you do not wish to be photographed or filmed at any in-person event, please notify the in-person event organiser on arrival. For online sessions, you may turn off your camera at any time.

16.3Marketing consent (separate tick-box). Use of your image, name, voice, likeness, or testimonial in any external marketing materials — including our website, social media, prospectuses, and case studies — will only take place with your prior consent, given by ticking the relevant consent box at the point of accepting your Offer Letter. You may withdraw this consent at any time by emailing contact@infinitumeducation.com. Withdrawal of consent does not require us to remove materials already published prior to the date of withdrawal, although we will use reasonable efforts to do so where practicable.

16.4Data protection. Any personal data captured in recordings or photography will be processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable UK data protection law.

17.1Master clause 14 applies. Clause 14 of the master Website Terms of Service (Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you) applies in full to the Programme.

17.2No warranty as to outcome. Without limiting clause 14 of the master Website Terms of Service, we make no warranty, representation, or guarantee — express or implied — as to: (a) any visa, endorsement, or immigration outcome (see clause 12); (b) any commercial, fundraising, financial, customer, or business outcome of any founder participating in the Programme; or (c) the suitability of the Programme for any specific personal, business, or immigration objective.

17.3Cap on liability. Without limiting clauses 14.1 and 14.2(b) of the master Website Terms of Service, our total liability to you in contract, tort (including negligence), misrepresentation, restitution, or otherwise, arising in connection with the Programme, is capped at the total fees actually paid by you to us in respect of your cohort.

17.4Liabilities not excluded. Nothing in these IFP Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under English law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or fraudulent misrepresentation.

18.1Privacy Policy. We process your personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which is available on our website. By accepting these IFP Terms you confirm you have read and understood the Privacy Policy.

18.2Sharing within the cohort. To facilitate cohort networking and peer-to-peer learning, we may share your name, photograph, business overview, and contact details with other members of your cohort, faculty, and mentors. If you do not wish your details to be shared, please notify us at contact@infinitumeducation.com before the Programme start date.

19.1Notices. Any notice given under these IFP Terms must be in writing. Notices to us must be sent to contact@infinitumeducation.com. Notices to you will be sent to the email address you provide on application.

19.2Entire agreement. These IFP Terms, together with the master Website Terms of Service, the Privacy Policy, and your Offer Letter, constitute the entire agreement between you and us in respect of the Programme and supersede any prior representations, statements, or agreements.

19.3Variations. We may vary these IFP Terms from time to time. Variations will be effective from the date stated in the updated IFP Terms. Material variations affecting your live contract will be handled in line with clause 9 of the master Website Terms of Service.

19.4Assignment. You may not assign or transfer your rights under the contract to any other person without our prior written consent. Clauses 16.1 and 16.2 of the master Website Terms of Service apply.

19.5Third-party rights. No person other than you and us has any rights to enforce these IFP Terms.

19.6Severance. If any provision of these IFP Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

19.7Waiver. A failure or delay by us in exercising any right under these IFP Terms is not a waiver of that right.

19.8Governing law and jurisdiction. These IFP Terms are governed by English law. The provisions of clause 16.5 of the master Website Terms of Service apply in respect of the courts in which legal proceedings may be brought.

Questions or concerns about these IFP Terms or the Programme should be directed to:
