These free pre-enterprise, early stage enterprise and personal development workshops are for people who are historically under-represented, under-supported and under-funded in Entrepreneurship.
The aim is to raise entrepreneurial aspirations for people who may not have previously considered Enterprise as a viable career pathway, people who would like to or are considering working for themselves or people who may have a very early stage business idea and don't know where to go for support.
