23rd June 2011 - Directors' Bootcamp for Start-Ups:
Transform your idea into a viable business
Faraday Wharf, Birmingham Science Park, Aston
1.00pm - 5.00pm
Aimed at: recent graduates, postgraduates and graduates living in the Greater Birmingham and Solihull area. (You must have graduated in the last four years i.e. 2007 - 2011).
Why attend?
Great ideas do not necessarily translate into great businesses. It is well recognised that for a fledgling business to succeed, it must be founded on a robust and viable business idea to even get off the ground. Many ideas are often too narrow or too wide in scope, lack competitive advantage or are simply are not well researched, resulting in insufficient demand for the product or service.
But how do you know if your idea is worth pursuing?
And more importantly, what do you need to know to help you make sure that you are onto a winner?
BSEEN has partnered with e4f to produce a Directors’ Bootcamp for Start-ups. The theme: Transform your idea into a viable business.
