UltraViolet is Beepurple’s Intensive Business Start-Up Course aimed at final years and graduates. Over the course of five days, course attendees will develop their entrepreneurial skills and also learn how to become self-employed and more enterprising – something which they may not have covered during their degree.
By the end of the course, attendees will have developed the following skills:
- Business ideas development and creative thinking
- Opportunity seeking and analysis
- Negotiation and selling
- Communication and networking
- Marketing
- Financial planning
- Business planning
- Leadership
Attendees will also learn about the legalities of starting up a business and how to protect their intellectual property and have the chance to meet local entrepreneurs, and learn from their successes and experiences of setting up and running a business.
The course will be full of practical challenges to put your skills to the test and include a Charity Challenge, where you will be fundraising for a local charity, and you will also have the chance to enter an elevator pitch competition to win £200!
This course is designed for final years and graduates who would like to develop their own business ideas and gain some essential enterprise skills relevant for self-employment or employment.
Bookings for this course are now closed. If you would like to be placed on the reserve list, in case of cancellations, then please contact the beepurple team on beepurple@brighton.ac.uk.
