The Sky's The Limit
We Develop Unique Insights That Help Your Business Grow
Business Growth is the stage where your business reaches the point for expansion. Successful growth comes from identifying additional options to generate more profit. It’s always about profit, whether costs savings, production efficiencies or increasing margins through pricing or other activities.
We Solve Real Problems
what can we do for you?
Strategy & Transformation
Strategy is all about choices. The primary ingredient is knowledge-based options to build evolutionary (sometimes revolutionary) advantage. Successful Transformation is the managed implementation of success focused choices. Emphasis on the word "managed".
Innovation & Entrepreneurship
Innovation is based on your capabilities including mindset and practical tools and most importantly "money" to develop ideas into a commercial business proposition. And how to be entrepreneurial and inspire innovation from others.
Business Model & Commercialisation
Business Models also known as the "income generating engines". You need to identify additional options to generate more profit. It’s always about profit, whether costs savings, production efficiencies or increasing margins through pricing or other activities.
Business Plan
Business plans are a traditional way of conveying the nature of the business and includes the sales and marketing strategy, the financial background, a projected profit and loss statement and so on. We can show you how to use new tools and methodologies to produce better investigated and deliberated, therefore more effective, business plans.
Specialised Services
Not everything is about mentoring and coaching you and your team, it can take too long and becomes costly, so we can provide specific services in the areas of Commercialisation, Technology and Digital Growth.
Financial Modelling
Financial Information is the corner stone of any business. Financial Modelling is the building of abstract representations (a model) for real-world financial situations such as Budgeting, Cashflow and more complex situations including Forecasting. As long as you understand what you want and can articulate it, we can build it!
Delivery & Key Milestones Management
A key component of successful growth is delivery - not just your Products and Services but your internal Projects and Transformation. So how do you currently de-risk business change? identify challenges? And implement resolutions to your barriers to growth? What is your current method of managing the delivery of key milestones? And is it working?
Raising Finance
Growth can only happen if you can fuel it with "money". Financing is the process of raising money through the sale of shares, loans, invoice discounting and alternative means such as investments. This can be for short-term need to pay bills or you might have a long-term goal and require funds to invest in your growth.
Resources & Personnel
The team is an important element in any organisation especially when starting up and pre-acceleration. The provision of services can include the supply of Subject Matter Experts, Non-Executive Directors, Professional personnel and services.

we love them
what our clients have to say
Shakeeb can always be relied upon for his for his tireless effort in creating contacts and connecting people together through these events and his other activities. It's testament to these skills that BCS Entrepreneur events bring startups, entrepreneurs and leaders from the IT community together to collaborate and network so effectively.
Shakeeb took me on as Intern for UX Designer as part of my new career journey. I helped him in couple of his ventures including design / development of S.E.E.D. charity website, www.seed-uk.org, and his professional services website www.shakeebniazi.com. Shakeeb not only acted as my mentor but also encouraged and supported me to understand all the connected digital skills and opportunities and it been an exciting and upward journey. The atmosphere that Shakeeb created was a great place full of enthusiasm and learning - all the way. 
Shakeeb is working as a Visiting Entrepreneur, business advisor and startup mentor here at Kingston University London. His expertise and contacts have been extremely helpful. Our startup Founders like him, too! Great to have him on board. 
Shakeeb is one of the good guys, giving up his time to help young entrepreneurs succeed. 
I placed Shakeeb at Dixons, he did a fantastic job and quickly became indispensable to them. He ended up doing 2 different jobs at the same time and gave the client extremely good value for money.
He a good listener, thinker and sees beyond the clutter those are qualities which compliments a mentor among others. 
It has been an absolute pleasure working with Shakeeb over the past 5 months - he has been my primary contact at the BCS with regards to the area of entrepreneurship and together, we have made a promising start in creating a great relationship between BCS and the University of Greenwich.
Shakeeb has a unique range of experience across sales and IT - it is rare that one person has strong knowledge and skills within two such different areas. He is creative and thoughtful about suggestions that he makes to startups when they bring challenges to him, and they have great praise both for his advice and for the way in which he structures his mentoring sessions - being keenly aware of how to be an effective and supportive guide to a startup business. 
I met Shakeeb at London Met accelerator event a couple of years ago. He was evidently passionate about supporting tech community. He has never failed to provide me with sound advice and direction on business strategy. He is very personable, knowledgeable and it is a privilege to have him as a mentor on my entrepreneurial journey. 
I met Shakeeb through his mentoring work with Bathtub to Boardroom. His business knowledge and acumen has helped us immensely over the past year. He has always made himself available for mentoring sessions. Even going above and beyond when we’ve needed it. 
Making things happen, if you are an organisation that needs to adapt to the current times Shakeeb has a mix of experience and open to new ideas difficult to find in the today shortage of innovation with experience skills. 
Shakeeb is a highly experienced Project Director and IT Strategist who we at Takion are delighted to be working with in order to promote the implementation of Point-To-Point Encryption (P2PE) solutions for Retailers in the UK. 
Shakeeb is one of those mentors that I so much enjoy working with, being passionate about truly supporting startups, for the good of the startup and not for personal reasons, that as testimony to this, we are planning future ways in which we can work together on startup projects.
Shakeeb is one of those people who knows what he is talking about, it is very rare to meet people now a days as many don’t “walk the talk.
He worked very hard and delivered to a very high standard, I would have no qualms about vouching for him and really enjoyed doing business with him. If you are considering Shakeeb for a role and need someone to deliver on time and in budget then I would not look any further.
Shakeeb’s passion and enthusiasm, shown through from day one, and knowledge on the area are just two of his key strengths. He is very prompt at responding to emails and arranging calls and meetings and very keen to build a strong collaboration with us. He is very reliable and we are all extremely pleased with his performance.
His mentorship and help, through BCS, has opened up new business opportunities, along with expanding my knowledge of business acumen. I highly recommend Shakeeb and BCS, and indeed have done, to other entrepreneurs and aspiring CEO’s.
Shakeeb is a commercially minded IT guru. He understands your business and his products deliver. 
Having met Shakeeb at several entrepreneur and startup community events, I've found his passion for connecting people and technology impressive. The support he has shown programs like Mass Challenge as well as the individuals he has helped with mentoring, entrepreneurial business advice and knowledge is second to none.
Shakeeb was very helpful and effective in his teachings and guidance. If I didn’t understand something he would go out of his way to explain from step to step and make sure I’m on the right path. Shakeeb educated me on business and self improvement I had no knowledge on which was very helpful, this helped myself and my business to improve. Many thanks to Shakeeb. 
We have worked with Shakeeb for the last few months and he has been invaluable in his advice for developing our start-up business. His wide range of experience has proven very helpful in helping us create a more focused marketing strategy. Shakeeb has also helped us organise our cash forecasts and accounting using his in-depth practical knowledge. Apart from this, Shakeeb was a friendly voice when a moral boost was needed. 
Shakeeb was our BCS business mentor when we first started Meta Defence Labs. He helped us immensely in creating business processes, and has been very helpful and supportive throughout our journey. Great honest feedback is difficult to come by these days, thanks Shakeeb for being the standup gent you are!
