We’re running an event to help entrepreneurs in Wales support each other, develop strong networks and mix with other entrepreneurial people from outside of their usual sector.

The event is multi-age, multi-stage event, proactive targeting a mixed demographic.

This event is about entrepreneurs offering help to other entrepreneurs. Please come willing to offer knowledge, contacts, resources or experience. If we all give support, everyone gains.

We’re trailing an idea of multi-stage, multi-age enterprise events where entrepreneurs support each other.

Both Enterprise Rich and Carnegie UK (more info in the final question on these two) are driven to test new ideas and look for innovative methods of having a positive social impact. We’re interested to see if an event of this kind is needed, has a positive impact and offers something new that no one else is doing

Anyone.

We are working with our partners (listed in the final question) to ensure a wide mix of participants. We will positively discriminate and target our messages to ensure a balance of gender, age, background and business stage. That’s the point of the event.

There is a registration process to allow us to balance the participant group as best we can. (more information on this below).

You can go to the registration page and you can also contact Richard Strudwick at richard[at]enterpriserich.co.uk or @enterpriserich if your questions aren’t answered here.

It’s simple.

We want a mix of participants from different backgrounds, stages and ages. We want all participants to be prepared to offer help, to speak up, to engage and to listen.

It costs £10 to register but that money is refunded on attendance. Places are limited so we need to ensure that everyone who books to attend takes up their place.

Register here or drop Richard an email if you prefer at richard[at]enterpriserich.co.uk

The initial event has been created by Richard Strudwick of Enterprise Rich Ltd supported by the Carnegie Trust UK. We’ve teamed up because of a mutual passion for empowering self-starters and an interest in testing different ideas that generate positive social impacts. Supporting the development of entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial communities in North Wales is our focus for this event.

We’ve consulted with and been supported by a wide number of organisations, Young Enterprise, Indycube, the Princes Trust Wales, Welsh ICE, Welsh Gov, Cazbah, Menter a Busnes, Cardiff Start, NESTA, Big Ideas Wales and the British Venture Capitalist Association. Our thanks to all of them.
