If you are thinking about a career in industry or starting your own business then we are providing a course in innovation and entrepreneurship to be held on the 7-11 November 2016 – University of Bristol. The course will aim to impart key skills in commercialisation to the attendees. There are a variety of modules addressing Innovation, Project Management, Finance, Market Research, and overall project feasibility. Once provided with these skills, students are encouraged to enter the EnvironmentYES business plan competition http://www.environmentyes.org/environmentyes/index.aspx with the chance of winning a cash prize and a trip to Texas to pitch your idea at the Rice business plan competition. We won the competition last year and it would be great to take the title again this year. You can watch the winning team's pitch on or website for an idea of what this might involve :http://nercgw4plus.ac.uk/innovation-and-entrepreneurship/ .
The cost of the course to non-DTP students is £400 which covers all training, lunch and refreshments throughout the day but not travel and accommodation.
If you are interested in participating in this course, please contact gw4plus-dtp@bristol.ac.uk and we will provide you with booking details. Please do not attempt to register via the website.
