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.

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.

This Summer the Student Microfinance & Development Initiative is sending top students to 158 Leading Social Entrepreneurs of the Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship around the world to intern.
The internships between June and October on flexible dates will be partly supported by the social entrepreneurs, but the chosen SMDI Fellows are to expect to cover travel expenses and accomodation on their own. Interested students are asked to keep this in mind before applying.
Applicants are to specify one or at most two social enterprises they are interested in working with and the dates of their availability in summer. The Schwab Foundation and SMDI are then going to choose winning applicants and set up the internships with the leading social entrepreneurs.
If you are a student interested in applying to become an SMDI Fellow and join a Schwab Social Entrepreneur over the Summer, please:
Choose a Social Enterprise:
Social Enterprises for Internships
You can find detailed descriptions of the enterprises on

Then apply:
by sending in your CV, a cover letter targeted to the one or two social entrepreneurs you are applying to work with and the SMDI Fellow Application Form (if you are not already an SMDI Fellow):
