Paul Sturrock

I am an Associate Lecturer on MA Innovation Management. I have spent my career either leading the design and implementation of entrepreneurial strategy, or developing the capability of others to do so. I have a BA in Literature from Reed College (USA), an MBA from the University of Washington (USA) and I am a graduate of MA Innovation Management from Central Saint Martins. I started my career in Silicon Valley with Advanced Cardiovascular Systems, a start-up that pioneered angioplasty. After senior posts in other startups in Germany and Spain, I joined Gorilla Park, and launched their venture investment and acceleration operations in Sweden. I have designed and delivered entrepreneurship programmes for the FFWDLondon Pre-Accelerator, City University, Scottish Institute for Enterprise, Hong Kong University, and Wayra. Other clients have included Boots, MIT Media Lab, the SETSquared Partnership, 3C Research, NESTA Investments, School for Startups and Imperial Innovations.
