Congratulations to our student Jamie Mason-Pate whose project to support the early sensory development of babies has been selected to join the 2026 Converge KickStart Challenge.
Jamie’s project, NeuroNest Sensory Cover, is one of three by researchers and innovators from the UHI partnership to be included in this year’s Converge cohort of more than 120 of Scotland’s most promising academic start-ups.
They will take part in an intensive programme of entrepreneurial training and networking that supports university staff, students and graduates to develop entrepreneurial skills and transform innovative ideas into sustainable businesses.
Jamie, who studies An Introduction to Business Administration at UHI Inverness, has developed a concept to support the early sensory and motor development of premature and newborn babies during feeding.
Jamie said: “Being selected for Converge 2026 is an incredible opportunity for both myself and the NeuroNest Sensory Cover project. Being part of Converge KickStart gives me the chance to develop the idea further and connect with people who can help bring it to life.”
