It’s about putting your toe in the entrepreneurial water – perhaps through doing a short-term business gig or a pop-up business- and then seeing what happens. It shows you how to listen to the customer and work out why failures may happen, and when they do, you’ll learn how to deal with them and create a new business that is robust and ready to grow.’

That education and intellect alone is not enough to be a voice of influence; University is no longer simply the answer.
