Westmont Enterprise Hub at The University of West London is an entrepreneurship support centre and business incubator based on the university’s St Mary’s Road campus in Ealing, with plans to extend its reach to Golden Mile London in the near future. It helps student founders, staff, alumni and local community entrepreneurs turn early ideas into viable businesses.
Westmost Enterprise Hub acts as a focal point for enterprise activity on campus, helping early‑stage ventures develop practical skills and connections needed to grow.
It offers workspace, co‑working facilities and networking opportunities alongside workshops, mentoring, coaching and expert business advice to support business ideation, proof of concept and early growth.
The Hub was established with support from Westmont Hospitality Group and the university’s leadership to foster start‑up creation, innovation and collaboration among students and the wider West London community.
