Student Joshua Aaron secures £250,000 investment for AI-powered start-up

A second-year BSc Business Management student from Nottingham University Business, Joshua Aaron, is celebrating a major entrepreneurial milestone after securing £250,000 in pre-seed funding from Fuel Ventures for his start-up, mytender.io. 

Founded with the aim of revolutionising the bidding process, mytender.io uses artificial intelligence to streamline how public and private sector bidding teams create winning bids making the process faster, smarter, and more creative. The platform is designed to empower teams with the tools they need to stand out in a highly competitive sector. 

Joshua, Head of Marketing and co-founder, credits much of his progress to the skills, confidence, and support he's received during his time at Nottingham University Business School: 

“Securing this investment is a huge step forward for mytender.io. It reflects the dedication and innovation behind our mission, and it wouldn’t have been possible without the knowledge and encouragement I’ve gained at the University of Nottingham.” 

This exciting development highlights the university’s commitment to supporting entrepreneurship and innovation among its students. Joshua's success is a powerful example of what’s possible when academic learning meets real-world ambition.
