Make an impact
We want to ensure your participants have a quality experience at your event and leave with a positive impression of enterprise and entrepreneurship. So we’ve developed some key criteria to think about when planning your activities.
Education
If you work in a school, college, university or youth organisation, you are in the amazing position of helping young people gain the skills and confidence they need to succeed in life.
Business sector
Businesses, now more than ever, need to continually innovate to survive. Focus on your employees’ skills and creativity, and get them thinking up enterprising ways to save or make money.
Third sector & community organisations
There are more and more charities and voluntary and community organisations taking up enterprising activities, and it’s now more important than ever to improve quality through innovation. Social enterprise is a key driver in achieving this.
Public sector
Local authorities and strategic partnerships (LSPs) are key to developing a positive culture for entrepreneurial activity, unlocking the untapped potential for enterprise in their local area.
Networks
Peer-to-peer networks are crucial in encouraing and supporting people to set-up businesses. Sharing ideas and getting advice are essential for any aspiring entrepreneur.
