Honestly, you seem like you would be better of getting a job in tech right now. Start your company in a few years when you have more experience within the industry. Try & get a junior dev job. Learn HTML, CSS & JS if you don't know these already. Put together a portfolio of your projects (doesn't have to be actual client work, you can just build small things). Make sure you have a Github profile you can share.

Have you considered Berlin? There is a strong startup community there & it's much cheaper than England.

He's talking about making mobile ecg devices, and you're going to recommend he get into web design? Might as well suggest he become a plumber.

Fair, but I meant it as a gateway to getting a job in tech. At least he could get experience in working in a company / building a real website/product (which OP admits he has no idea about) and most likely with people that are much more experienced than him that can guide him in his learning.
