Enterprise Event

Enterprise Event will challenge students, build their self-confidence and offer insight into the world of business. They will learn from UCB lecturers, in mock lectures and skills workshops to enable them to develop their own ideas. Students will also develop their presentation skills as they pitch their own ideas to a panel of judges. Exploring the highs and lows of owning your own business the day will show students what it’s really like to work for yourself.
