Business Start-up Week Feedback

Don't just take our word for it, hear what previous delegates have said about Business Start-up Week:

Claire McNamara - Graduate

“I didn’t quite know what to expect from Business Start-up Week. So, armed with the course itinerary, detailed parking instructions and the promise of a week’s worth of free lunches I arrived with an open mind and a somewhat vague idea for a business start-up. By the end of the week my original idea had fallen by the wayside (the start-up costs and expertise required to get it off the ground would prove insurmountable); but from it was born a slim-line version that not only seemed feasible, achievable and sustainable, but was one that I could begin to implement almost immediately.

I would highly recommend BSUW to anyone who is thinking of, or has already taken, their first steps into the world of new business and social enterprise. You can attend the full week or mix and match the sessions that most suit your business needs. You don’t need to be a student to attend or even have a fully developed idea. The atmosphere is relaxed and supportive and the presenters were not only incredibly approachable but generous with both their time and knowledge. In addition to getting the opportunity to network with other entrepreneurs, Business Start-up Week is a goldmine of information, advice and support that can provide key links to other valuable services and organisations.

In short: what are you waiting for?”

"The sessions were informative, entertaining, empowering and inspiring – a complete toolbox for turning ideas into goals, goals into reality and action into accomplishment – recommended if you want to turn your dreams into a business reality”
