Young people showcase their business minds

The event, at Brinsworth Training Centre from 12.30pm to 3pm next Tuesday (15), is aimed at helping people with business ideas turn their ideas into reality, will see young people exhibiting their businesses to their peers.

YOUNG entrepreneurs are set to showcase their fledging businesses at a special event next week.

Jackie Frost, Manager of Rotherham Youth Enterprise, said: “This will be a fantastic opportunity for young people with aspirations of running their own business to come along and find out more from people we've helped.

“We ran a similar event last year which saw thirteen businesses exhibit to more than 50 business people.

“A speed networking session maximised the impact of attending and ensured that everyone got a chance to raise awareness of their business.”

The aim of the event is to help young business people raise their profile within the local area and get them networking with each other to give them some experience of exhibiting in front of a friendly audience.

Rotherham Youth Enterprise supports young people aiming to start and run a business in the Rotherham area by offering business coaching and grant assisted workshop and office space.
