The NU Enterprise Programme, delivered by a top team of leading entrepreneurs and business experts, is a flexible and intensive six-week programme of free evening workshops for Newcastle University students and alumni who are already in business or looking to get started.

The programme offers practical first-hand advice and insight into our entrepreneurs' own experiences - the perfect recipe for inspiring and preparing you for your own business venture. It's also a great opportunity to meet like-minded people. The programme comprises:

Starter Sessions - an opportunity for prospective entrepreneurs to find out what is involved in setting up a business - from generating and evaluating ideas to marketing your business effectively.

Master Classes - aimed at those who already have an idea and a commitment to making it happen, as well as those already running their own business. These sessions take a more in-depth look at topics such as market research, raising and managing finances and keeping it legal.

Making Connections - a one-off networking event that gives you the chance to chat informally to a host of business experts and entrepreneurs.

The programme begins on 26th January 2010 and runs for six weeks.
