Santander Business Incubation Awards launched!

Newcastle University, in conjunction with Santander, is offering current students or graduates of the last decade the opportunity to win one of three Business Incubation Awards worth £2000. To apply, you must:

  • have a business that's no more than one year old
  • have worked with the Make It Fly engagement, training and/or support programmes
  • be endorsed by one of the Careers Service's Business Advisers

Simply submit a copy of your business plan to the Careers Service Entrepreneurial Development Unit by 30th November 2009 at makeitfly@ncl.ac.uk, for the attention of Gareth Trainer, and include the name of your supporting Business Adviser(s).

If you're shortlisted, you'll be asked to make a short presentation to a selection panel. The panel will select up to three businesses that best demonstrate how the Award will support the development, growth and/or sustainability of their business.

For more information, email: makeitfly@ncl.ac.uk or visit the Hatchery within the Careers Service for a chat.
