💡 What if your next big idea could become a business?
Yesterday, we had a fantastic session at UKMC Salford as part of our Centre for Entrepreneurship's second masterclass – Opportunity Recognition & Creative Thinking! 🚀
We were joined by three brilliant entrepreneurs who brought their own experiences and perspectives to the room.
🔹 Neil Fagleman, Managing Director of Merco FS, shared his journey in business ownership and growth.
🔹 Josh Morris, Founder & CEO of Busy Bins, spoke about how spotting a simple everyday problem led to building his own business.
🔹 Manoj Ranaweera, Founder & CEO of Techcelerate, took students through the importance of testing ideas before turning them into businesses.
It was lovely to see students asking questions, sharing ideas and learning from people who've been through the journey themselves!
A big thank you to Neil, Josh and Manoj for spending time with our students, and to Dr Akintayo Akinrinsola for bringing it all together. 💙
Here's to more conversations, fresh ideas and opportunities to learn beyond the classroom!
