NACUE Autumn 2010 Entrepreneur in Residence Programme
An Experience Like No Other!Do you want an internship where you will be overloaded with responsibility and where you can make a difference?Do you want to gain the necessary skills, knowledge and network to be an entrepreneur – fast?

Do you want to join one of the fastest growing start-ups in the UK?

Then apply to be an Entrepreneur in Residence at NACUE

All of NACUE’s Entrepreneurs in Residence are already working on their own venture, or are aspiring entrepreneurs who use their residency with NACUE as a launching point for the venture and career! NACUE has positioned itself at the center of the UK’s entrepreneurial action – giving you access to an exceptional network of entrepreneurs, educators, investors, policy makers and business support professionals. This is not your average internship! You are given complete responsibility for your own programmes, files and clients and have the freedom to create your own role! Their interns go on to do great things! For instance, after completing a 6 month internship with NACUE as part of her degree, Kata Gyetvai is now a Business Analyst at Ariadne Capital; after 4 months with NACUE, David Mok and is now full time on his startup; and, after 6 months with NACUE, Jonatan Fogelquist is now founding a similar organisation in Sweden (FENA).

Roles range from development, governance, operations, sponsorship, strategic relations, international relations, programmes and events management, student enterprise support, finance, policy, advocacy, research, marketing, PR, communications, programme development, etc. 

They are looking for enterprising young people who are dynamic, energetic, ambitious, like to work hard and have fun, believe in the importance of self-development and ongoing learning, and are passionate about promoting entrepreneurship.

Internships are 3-5 days a week for 2-6 months and take place in the NACUE London HQ. They can be done as part of your programme of study, during a leave, or upon graduation. Their team ranges from ages 21 – 30 years old.

Join them as an Autumn 2010 Entrepreneur in Residence and help them to build NACUE into the leading youth entrepreneurship organisation the the UK! Deadline for applications is August 20th! Interviews will take place the following week.  Please submit your CV and cover letter. Email victoria@nacue.com for more details.

Hello from the new president, Luka Blackman-Gibbs

Posted by on August 2, 2010 under News, People | Be the First to Comment

Hello everybody,

It’s my first day as the new president of Royal Holloway Entrepreneurs- I’m very excited to be joining you all! 

I’ve just graduated with a BA from Royal Holloway and am about to start my Masters in Politics here. In my final year I started a Community Action scheme called ‘Study Buddy,’ a foreign language exchange programme used and run by students at Holloway.  Study Buddy started as an idea on a post-it note in my bedroom, and then with the support of Community Action and Royal Holloway Entrepreneurs it grew into a successful and well used programme. This year I hope to support and motivate anybody with their own ideas, whether they are small social enterprise programme ideas or huge multi-million pound company ideas!

With lots of great ideas and enthusiam I hope we can build on Jack’s work and grow and improve this already successful organisation.

Kind Regards,

Luka
