In Capabilities, we look to develop the knowledge and skills needed to develop and implement entrepreneurship, such as finance for start-ups, business accounting, managing IP, marketing and sales.
Exploring the idea at the core of your entrepreneurial potential, and how to develop a value proposition from it. Events will include user-centred approaches to design, insight and idea generation, market and competition research and value proposition development.
Here we look at how best to determine what markets you’re in, who the customer/competition is, and how to use that information to your advantage. Topics covered will include user-centred approaches, context and meta positioning and triple bottom line impact.
This study of the essential skills needed to develop potential into a realistic business plan will cover business model planning and the basics of brand.
Finally we look at developing the skills needed to convincingly present ideas, both orally and in writing. This section includes a pitch competition with a £10,000 prize fund donated by Santander.
