Former Dragon leads 'School for Start-Ups'

Doug will be delivering an interactive seminar, incorporating ‘live’ on the day delegate case studies, video examples, lectures, and Q&A sessions. He will provide an insightful introduction to how to succeed in business and address the essential questions that entrepreneurs should ask themselves before investing time and money into an idea:

• How to write the perfect business model
• How to identify your product and your market
• How to start an affordable marketing campaign to increase your sales leads
• How to treat the recession as an opportunity, rather than a threat
• How to make money and secure investment

Come and be entertained, inspired and coached by Doug Richard for a day!

Bringing together University of Birmingham, Birmingham City University and Aston University, the scheme will offer a six-month tenure in incubator space, with a seed corn grant, training, coaching and mentoring. Students and recent graduates can register their interest in the programme on the day. BEES is the University of Birmingham’s student enterprise society, a network of enterprising students and would-be entrepreneurs.
