Market-path research — 31 Aug 2026 12:55 Europe/London

Not a P move. No path named. No customer named.
Did not re-read Companies House company 16892858.
Did not repeat last recon hour: Free Representation Unit / www.thefru.org.uk (11:55 Competitor mapping).
Also did not repeat as primary: PECR / Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (10:55 Risk reduction); Innovate Finance (09:55 Companies in the space); Support Through Court (07:55 Competitor mapping); BVCA / UK Private Capital (06:55 Companies in the space); Advocate (05:55 Competitor mapping); Companies House April–June 2026 monthly Official Statistics (04:55 Market discovery); MentorsMe (03:55 Market scenarios); Equality Act 2010 (02:55 Risk reduction); UKBAA (01:55); AdviceUK (00:55); ScaleUp Institute (23:55); Law Centres Network (22:55); Be the Business (21:55); Enterprise Nation (20:55); LawWorks (19:55); ACAS (18:55); Citizens Advice (17:55); Growth Hub (16:55); Legal Choices (15:55); ICO data protection fee (28 Aug 21:55); Start Up Loans (27 Aug 22:55); Help to Grow (28 Aug 09:55). Explicitly did not re-open FRU / Support Through Court / Advocate / AdviceUK / Law Centres / LawWorks / Citizens Advice / Legal Choices / MentorsMe / ACAS / Growth Hub / Start Up Loans / Help to Grow / Enterprise Nation / Innovate Finance / BVCA / PECR / Equality Act / CH monthly as primary. Distinct from 14:20 compile (e834b2f2, 0 candidates, blocker reach) and from 15:36 reach-story/stats (58cd58c1). 08:55 already skipped at 10:55 (no reply by 10:25) — this hour does not re-ask and does not re-log a second skip. 14:55 is later today — not stolen. Overnight for Night of 30–31 Aug already written; did not rewrite overnight. Did not unpark/install customer cut 63e813ea. Did not write kpis/p-evidence.md. Did not promote Ironclad, Harvey, Legora, SOC 2, or “startups and SMEs” as an accepted market/path. Did not install the 12:48 productised hour-menu as a path. Did not treat King's Trust participants, mentors, Enterprise-programme young people, or “young people starting a business” as a FYJ customer. British Library Business & IP Centre / TechUK / NatWest Entrepreneur Accelerator fallbacks not used — King's Trust primary cluster lives.

Area: Market scenarios.
Verdict: stayed thin as a path.
P unchanged.

Prefer Market scenarios this hour — The King's Trust (formerly The Prince's Trust) Enterprise / Start Up / self-employment support — official how-young-founders-are-reached. Distinct from 03:55 MentorsMe (mentor-match directory), 16:55 Growth Hub, 18:55 ACAS, 27 Aug 22:55 Start Up Loans, 28 Aug 09:55 Help to Grow, 20:55 Enterprise Nation. Why this source now: destination $2.5–5bn; first-customer cut parked (63e813ea); live gate still cannot compile path candidates (e834b2f2 compile 0; blocker still REACH — how a first professional hour is found and sold). Last hour was FRU Competitor mapping. This hour opens a still-unused public reach channel (how young people who want to start a business are directed into an official youth-enterprise programme) that can be read without inventing a buyer. Not a FYJ path. Not P.

Did not invent a FYJ buyer from King's Trust participants, mentors, Enterprise-programme young people, grant/loan applicants, or “young people starting a business”. Soft-404 / named-404 pages and the dead grants.kingstrust.org.uk Start Up Grant path are not live named-content facts. Site body beyond meta is JS — did not invent workshop schedules, exact eligibility HTML, or headcounts the live static/register pages do not print. British Library Business & IP Centre / TechUK / NatWest Entrepreneur Accelerator were not switched to — King's Trust primary cluster lives.

What stands

What does not stand

End-to-end test

Value-forming

The Market scenarios line got another official how-founders-are-reached channel next to MentorsMe / ACAS / Growth Hub / Start Up Loans / Help to Grow. Value has not started to form as a FYJ path. A youth-enterprise programme, a Test My Business Grant, and a start-up grant/loan package are not a path. Adjacent Market scenarios filings still leave who / why / how / next empty. Verdict stayed thin.

Result

No path named yet. Market scenarios stayed thin as a path. P unchanged.

Confirmation

Contract UUID 26e4abb6-3b66-4a66-a4f7-d4c065ad9233 is live. Hold = no invention, not no recon. Standing work is recon until end-to-end paths emerge and value-forming is visible. No path named. P unchanged. Customer cut parked.

## What stands
- Live King's Trust cluster on www.kingstrust.org.uk: homepage / how-we-can-help / how-we-can-help/support-starting-business (Enterprise programme) / about-us / contact-us / privacy-notice / support-our-work (HTTP 200). Former princes-trust.org.uk 301 → kingstrust. Short /enterprise and /startup 301 → support-starting-business. Named short paths HTTP 404 including /how-we-can-help/enterprise and grants Index/21. GOV.UK Enterprise programme page HTTP 200 with printed age 18–30 / UK nations / funding package / mentoring / up to 3 years post-launch. Charity 1079675 up to date; YE 31 Mar 2025 income £65,181,000 / expenditure £62,971,000; 953 staff / 11 trustees / 1364 volunteers. Companies House RC000772 Royal Charter company.
- Official how-young-founders-are-reached fork: youth charity Enterprise programme (workshops, mentoring, Test My Business Grant up to £500, start-up grant up to £5,000 + loan £500–£25,000, up to £30,000 total access on GOV.UK, funding not guaranteed) for people who want to start a business. Free programme framing on the Trust meta lines; age bands printed variously 11–30 (apex/about) / 16–30 (how-we-can-help) / 18–30 (GOV.UK Enterprise funding page) — all recorded; not reconciled into one invented band.
- Distinct from MentorsMe (mentor-match directory), Growth Hub (local SME advice network), ACAS (employment advice), Start Up Loans (BBB personal loan product), Help to Grow (SME management course), Enterprise Nation (founder community). Youth-enterprise programme reach channel. Not a FYJ market path.

## What does not stand
- No page names a FYJ customer, market, offer, or P.
- King's Trust participants, mentors, Enterprise-programme young people, and “young people starting a business” are programme audiences, not a buyer.
- A youth-enterprise programme is not a FYJ market path.
- Naming “FYJ for King's Trust / young founders / Prince's Trust alumni” is inventing a customer — banned. Collision with founder-context.md: do not mint “startups and SMEs” as who; do not put Ironclad/Harvey on the map; productised-menu is a model not a path.
- Do not invent workshop counts, grant award averages, or staff headcounts beyond the Commission’s printed 953 / 11 / 1364. Do not treat named-404 paths or the dead grants hub as live Start Up Grant content. Do not stitch MentorsMe / Start Up Loans / Help to Grow into this hour as if re-read.
- MentorsMe (03:55), ACAS (18:55), Growth Hub (16:55), Start Up Loans, Help to Grow, Enterprise Nation remain prior Market scenarios / companies filings. This hour does not re-file those pages.
- Who / why / how / next all missing. No candidate this hour has even a partial who / why / how. End-to-end stays missing. Productised-menu context from 12:48 does not fill those blanks. Compile stays 0 (e834b2f2); reach blocker not closed by filing a youth-enterprise programme. Stayed thin as a path.

## End-to-end test
- Who it is for: missing.
- Why they would pay: missing.
- How FYJ reaches them: missing (a public youth-enterprise programme is not how FYJ reaches a named buyer).
- What sits next: missing.
No real public fact this hour filled any of the four. Do not invent the rest. The King's Trust / GOV.UK Enterprise pages fill a Market scenarios cell (official how-young-founders-are-reached / youth-enterprise programme). They do not fill a path cell. They do not install the productised-menu bucket. They do not pad compile candidates.

## Value-forming
The Market scenarios line got another official how-founders-are-reached channel next to MentorsMe / ACAS / Growth Hub / Start Up Loans / Help to Grow. Value has not started to form as a FYJ path. A youth-enterprise programme, a Test My Business Grant, and a start-up grant/loan package are not a path. Adjacent Market scenarios filings still leave who / why / how / next empty. Verdict stayed thin.

## Result
No path named yet. Market scenarios stayed thin as a path. P unchanged.

## Confirmation
Contract UUID 26e4abb6-3b66-4a66-a4f7-d4c065ad9233 is live. Hold = no invention, not no recon. Standing work is recon until end-to-end paths emerge and value-forming is visible. No path named. P unchanged. Customer cut parked.
