Student and Enterprise Ambassador Speed Networking event, November '24
The Centre for Enterprise and Entrepreneurship Studies (CEES) held a Speed Networking event for University of Leeds students interested in Business, to connect with our Enterprise Ambassadors.
CEES works closely with a group of generous Business Entrepreneurs, who volunteer both time and experience to work along with, mentor and inspire our students.
During this event, a mix of University students from the MSc Enterprise and Entrepreneurship Studies and final year ‘With Enterprise’ students, amongst others, were invited to meet with the Ambassadors and quiz them on their experiences of setting up and running their own business.
We were privileged to have a really good mix of Ambassadors attend this year’s event:
- Robert Barnes
- Caroline Wherritt
- Nina Aggarwal
- Stephen Curry
- Steve Baker
- Doug Main
- Emma Woods
- Claire Morley-Jones
- Sam Taylor
We have already had excellent feedback from our students:
"It was great meeting and chatting with entrepreneurs who possess practical experience. They gave me great advice on my own idea."
"This was a very light and joyful event, with supportive entrepreneurs."
Of course, we also had our excellent lecturers along too ...
