The UK’s must-attend event of 2010 for enterprising students and young entrepreneurs.
NACUE’s National Varsity Pitch Competition, in partnership with the British Library, is the UK’s premier start-up competition for university students across the country. It celebrates university enterprise by showcasing the brightest young minds and the breadth of businesses coming out of UK universities.
Young entrepreneurs will compete in one of seven industry semi-finals and seven finalists will have the opportunity to move on to the national finale on May 5th at the British Library after receiving a full day of training, one-on-one mentorship and coaching. Pitching to a panel of judges made up of some of the UK’s foremost entrepreneurs, investors, innovators and media personalities, the finalists will pitch for seedfunding, startup support and the National Title.
Royal Holloway Entrepreneurs are the first ever NACUE Society of the Week!
This prestigious new award is given to the UK society that has acheived the most to promote entrepreneurship at their insitution – and we are the first winners.
Victoria Lennox, CEO of the National Consortium of University Entrepreneurs said, “Royal Holloway Entrepreneurs has already secured its place as one of the strongest societies in the UK. They have engaged students with a range of interests – from internet to creative enterprises – and embraced social media marketing. The future holds great things for this new society. Watch out Cambridge and Oxford!”
