Student Enterprise are delighted to announce our annual Building an Entrepreneur Event will be taking place across three lunchtime sessions from the 24-26th March in a new exciting digital format!
Building an Entrepreneur is the University of Surrey Student Enterprise’s annual showcase of talent, ideas and start-up businesses.
The initiative helps budding entrepreneurs at every stage of their enterprise skills development:
- Explore their potential through practical enterprise workshops
- Experience the development of their idea through enterprise challenges
- Execute their business idea in the dedicated campus incubator.
This event is a celebration of the exciting students and graduates currently involved in Student Enterprise at all levels, and an opportunity for you to hear from each of our cohorts!
We warmly invite any University staff, students or local business people who are interested in the Student Enterprise programme and who would like to offer feedback and advice to the entrepreneurs to assist their onward journey.
