Entrepreneurship

Santander offers funding for entrepreneurial activities. In 2015 a Santander Start-Up weekend was held.

In 2016 Santander Universities funded Northumbria University's action packed Start-up Weekend in collaboration with Tramsmit Start-ups and NUOVO Society, Northumbria's enterprise society. Using the innovative Lean Start-up principle and Hook Model, they gave students an insight into entrepreneurship, how to generate ideas and how to pitch  ideas to investors.
