Entrepreneurs of the Future
What an enjoyable day I’ve had! I was honoured to be invited to be part of the Judging Panel for the Santander Entrepreneurship Competition on behalf of Napier University. This competition is national and the winner for the undergraduate entries will gain an award of £5000 to invest in their business idea. The selected graduate put forward for the national finals will gain a £500 award – not to be sneezed at I’m sure you’ll agree!
The four shortlisted students gave us very interesting presentations and I won’t divulge who the winner was just yet as I’m not sure they’ve been told. I would like to say however that each one had merits and were deserving of the prize. I will announce the winner on here in due course but in the meantime would like to thank the participants for their time, energy and great ideas.
