What Will Be Covered in the 4 Sessions?

Week #1: UNderstanding Yourself – having the right mindset is critical. It’s also essential to focus on your own goals and habits. Adaptability, resilience, and resourcefulness are key areas to master.

Week #3: UNderstanding Business – We’ll cover the different types of company structure, from “sole traders” and “limited companies” to “social enterprises”. Money will be one of the core drivers of your success, so we’ll look at the different sources of money from idea stage to scale-up.
Week #4: Panel Session: Hear from other UNpreneurs! – You’ll have the opportunity to hear from other student and graduate UNpreneurs in this special panel session! What they wish they knew when they were starting out, how they overcame challenges, and what their biggest lessons were. All will be revealed in this candid final session – you won’t want to miss it!
