Acorns Plus 2011
10 more Acorns enter the world of Business
Ten
more entrepreneurs completed the Acorns Plus ‘boot camp’ this
summer at York St John Business School. The course aims to
support them to start their business with confidence including key
business areas, such as marketing, strategic planning, managing
finance, administration, legalities, communications and
networking.
Course coordinator, Irma Gomez, said “One more
fantastic group of people attended the course and we are confident
they will succeed in the very near future. We introduced the
monthly meetings with our group in Spring and we have seen so much
progress, so no doubt this new group will also develop quickly
their business idea.”
Entrepreneur, Simon Wallace, said “A
comprehensive course covering everything you need to know when
setting up a company delivered in a fun and engaging way. I
would thoroughly recommend this course to anyone thinking about
starting a business.”
