Entrepreneurship Festival 2016 - NWRC Curriculum Support and Participation

SENT ON BEHALF OF NORIBIC
As you may be aware, the Derry and Strabane Enterprise week is scheduled to take place 22-26 February 2016. NWRC will be hosting an Entrepreneurship Festival focusing on the entrepreneurial journeys from successful ambassadors across all sectors. The format that many departments are utilising is that of a ‘doubtsession’ – this is where we invite between 3 and 5 industry speakers to talk to students about their journey from education to starting and running their own businesses in the areas of fashion, digital technology, engineering, health, beauty, tourism, sport, catering  

As we are fast approaching Enterprise week I would appreciate if you could complete the attached proforma with your plans or proposed plans for enterprise sessions that will take place as part of the Entrepreneurship Festival at NWRC during that week. We would really like to see a packed programme of events to highlight the great work and impact that NWRC has on developing our local talent pool and also the economic impact this in turn has on the region.

If you are interested in having your department participate in this exciting event please return contact clare.mcgee@noribic.com  as soon as possible. This will ensure that all sessions are included in the official enterprise week programme and that no department is left out.  If you have any queries on this, or would like to discuss further please contact Clare McGee on ext 5970 or mobile 07813110497.
