Launchpad - or www.businesslaunchpad.org to give it its full name, is a programme that reaches out into the community through launchpad outreach workers. The aim of launchpad is to meet as many young people as possible in the local area and tell them about the events the programme organises and about the enterprise services offered by the launchpad team at WYEC. Launchpad workers set up informal meetings where ideas, interests and information are exchanged, and where those who want to can brainstorm business ideas and take them a stage further with help from the dedicated professional team at WYEC. The launchpad programme covers the London Boroughs of Wandsworth, Lambeth and Southwark.

Businesslaunchpad in Wandsworth is financially supported by Wandsworth Borough Council, through the London Development Agency's Single Regeneration Budget, Wandsworth Youth Enterprise and the Princes Trust.
Businesslaunchpad is also supported by Equal funding through the STRIVE programme.
