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.

 Business Workshop 2016 1There will be more events such as the start-up weekend in the near future, keep an eye out on this page for more information.

For any other enterprise queries contact Graham Baty: graham.baty@northumbria.ac.uk
