This one-year programme is an extracurricular residential programme that aims to take innovative ideas forward within the context of social, corporate, and associative ventures. Students learn learn to assess opportunities, conduct market analyses, prepare organisational or business plans, understand the basics of financing an initiative, pitch effectively, and manage dynamic teams. The programme’s goal is to foster an entrepreneurial mindset that students can apply to a business project, a social enterprise, an association or a charity, or a research project, or within organizations as an intrapreneur.

The programme is structured in two complementary phases, beginning with an Intensive Residential Week (the week before Michaelmas term) and year’s programme of tailored events, workshops, and inspiring talks. The programme culminates in an exciting competition for seed funding to propel your ideas forward.
