New joint initiative building enterprise with Mentorship Support

In the UK, Business and Enterprise Minister, Mark Prisk recently commented: “Encouraging young entrepreneurs is vital to the future economic success of the UK and it’s great to see so much enthusiasm by young people to get into business. The 'Business In You' campaign provides a showcase to inspire the next generation of start-ups and growing businesses and the Intuit 100up provides an opportunity for innovative entrepreneurs to become their own success story.  This competition will give budding entrepreneurs the chance to learn from business people who have already been there and done it before. Getting experience from a business mentor is essential, which is why we are recruiting thousands of volunteer business mentors to pass on their knowledge to the next generation.”
