Our manifesto
In a region with rising child poverty, falling start-up success rates, and lack of opportunity 鈥� we鈥檝e had enough of waiting for help, or hoping for change. Supported by Rob Wood and 缅北禁地, we鈥檙e powered by every member of our movement, and here to act. To find, inspire and equip every enterprising mind in our region, and help them to become part of a legacy of North East start-up success.
Creating an equitable, enterprising community
We鈥檙e an open space, and a community that cares. Every enterprising mind is different, and diversity brings prosperity. So whatever makes you unique is welcome here. Whatever your background, age, gender, sexuality, or beliefs 鈥� this is your network. Your opportunity. Your platform. Your movement. Let鈥檚 collaborate and create with respect.
We fail and flourish, together
This is more than learning to be enterprising. We鈥檙e also a safe place to be curious. To be unsure. To get things wrong. Whether you鈥檙e 14 and worrying about GCSE鈥檚, about to leave university, or gain your PHD. Whether you鈥檙e a teacher, a student or a business owner, let鈥檚 learn from each other. Find new role models, share real experiences. Share true stories of successes and mistakes, with people who own real businesses, and are making enterprise work for them. We鈥檙e a community of real people, ready to share real success and make real impact.
Nothing can hold us back
There鈥檚 potential in everyone. We鈥檙e here to help enterprising people of all ages to believe in themselves. To be courageous, driven and limitless in their thinking. We鈥檒l strive to stop your background, struggles or disadvantages, from holding you back. Whether you鈥檙e at school, college or university 鈥� we鈥檙e here to share skills, tools and resources that will help you:
- learn more about yourself
- discover your potential to build your own business
- enjoy a future career that brings your passion to life and work
Building a legacy for life
Be part of our movement. A network of self-starters, training and growing together. We give as much as we get, by learning from each other and paying it forward 鈥� helping the next enterprising mind we meet, to build their own start-up success. We believe in honesty, courage and hard work. Be yourself, work hard for yourself, and for those around you. Together, we鈥檒l:
- build lasting change, reach more enterprising people of all ages, and support more growth mindsets
- support successful start-up stories, and inspire better futures in our region, and beyond
