Startup Consulting in Wales
Practical guidance for Welsh founders and small business owners who need help figuring out whether their app idea is feasible, and what it should cost.
Plenty of people will weigh in on your startup — few will give a Welsh founder a straight answer on the two questions that decide everything: can this actually be built, and what will it really cost? That's the gap we exist to fill.
GoMVP is a Wales-based startup consultancy serving founders from Cardiff to Bangor. We answer the questions that matter: is this technically feasible, how much will it cost, and what should you build first? We're not a marketing agency, a business coach, or a dev shop — we're product strategists who've shipped real products, working remotely across Wales or in person where it helps.
We start with the problem, not the solution. We help you define what you're building, validate genuine demand across your Welsh market and beyond, scope the minimum version worth launching, and produce a plan a development team can execute. And if the honest answer is "not yet," we'll tell you — before you've spent the funding.

Grant & Funding Preparation

Why Welsh Startups Need Specialised Consulting
Wales has a growing startup ecosystem. Cardiff's Tramshed Tech, Swansea's SA1 development, and Newport's proximity to Bristol have created clusters of ambitious founders with product ideas. But when it comes to practical startup consulting, the kind that tells you whether your idea is technically feasible and what it should cost, Welsh founders have historically been underserved.
Business Wales does excellent work on business plans and grant applications. Development Bank of Wales provides critical funding. But neither specialises in the technical question: can this product actually be built within your budget? That's the gap GoMVP fills. We work alongside these organisations, not instead of them.
Most Welsh founders we meet are first-time founders or small business owners who've spotted a gap in their market. They're not technical. They don't know whether they need a mobile app or a web app, whether to use AI or whether a spreadsheet would do, or how to evaluate developer quotes. We provide that clarity: in plain English, at a fixed price, with the benefit of understanding the Welsh funding landscape and local business ecosystem.
