Business Management and Entrepreneurship students at the University of Chester have teamed up to form the university’s first enterprise society, aimed at boosting business and leadership skills amongst students across campus.
Featured in the Chester Chronicle (December 8, 2011) and at the University’s website the society announced it’s launch event, a Christmas fair held on campus for all students to attend. Local businesses were encouraged to get involved and many donated items that were raffled off to raise funds. The society has teamed up with NACUE (National Association of College and University Entrepreneurs) and hopes to work with them closely in the future.
When asked about the society Michael had this to say:
Being part of such an enthusiastic team of budding entrepreneurs over the past few months has been great, we’ve really learned a lot about ourselves and each other, the team instantly bonded and we’ve been working super hard to get the society off the ground. I’m really excited to be working with fellow students, faculty members and business leaders: both locally and nationally. We’ve still got a long way to go but it’s going to be exciting to see how far we can take it. Our president and vice presidents are doing a great job and I can’t wait to see what projects are thought of next.
