The East Norfolk Sixth Form College is hosting an Entrepreneur and Enterprise Event on Wednesday 26th February and would like to invite NCC members to come along and help present an inspirational and motivating showcase of local businesses to our aspiring students.
The aim is to support and widen their understanding how much innovation is going on in our community and potentially encourage some to pursue an entrepreneur’s path!
Entrepreneurs will be asked to take part in a Q&A carousel where small groups of students will work their way around each business table to discover more about what they do and how they got there. It will be great to have a variety of entrepreneurs from different markets who are happy to interact and engage with them. Also be a fabulous opportunity to market yourselves and network in our creative environment!
Do you have an inspiring story to share about what you’ve achieved and how? Or are you just rightfully proud of what you’ve accomplished? If so, and you’re available to join us at 1.45pm until 3.15pm on the 26th February, please contact our Events Team Assistant Josh at jwhittington@eastnorfolk.ac.uk (before Friday 21st February).
