Free ten week business course

A free course for aspiring entrepreneurs will start at the University of Bedfordshire after Christmas. The B-innovative scheme runs for ten weeks from January 20, and is open to anyone with a business idea.

Sessions will be weekly, with support from an industry professional. The workshops are intended to give participants the knowledge, skills and confidence to make their business idea a reality.

The sessions will be interactive, with opportunities to discuss ideas.

They will be working towards building a business plan in preparation for a pitch at the end of the course.

The winning pitch will receive £1000 towards the formation of their business.

Places are limited and the deadline for entry proposals is January, 7, 2015. If you are interested, visit: www.beds.ac.uk/b-innovative
