This project aims to provide social science students with dedicated resources aimed at informing, inspiring and preparing them for life as an entrepreneur. It will generate resources via a podcast series (recorded interviews with entrepreneurs) and four Creative Challenge events.
Outcomes and Next Steps
Both the podcasts and creative challenge workshops successfully created new resources aimed to encourage social sciences students towards participating in entrepreneurship. Rather than focussing on traditional topics designed to rapidly test a business idea, these resources instead target developing and strengthening the entrepreneurial mindset and lay the groundwork for a potential future in entrepreneurship.
