Funded by RDA - North West / EU funding / administered through NCGE
rebidding for funding with 12 universities
Manchester Met / Liverpool Uni
Approach:
using things across the campus to build on (activities, incubation etc)
Strategic documents for the university - anything on enterprise?
existing courses? research?
track start ups
Strategically - could be good to bid with other local unis on a project with an enterprise project (as with SPEED).
entrepreneur in residence - getting that to work has been a challenge?
Embedding enterprise within curriculum through Enterprise Crriculum Fellows (HEIFE money)
bespoke curriculum development
work with alumni
events - flyer start programme / social enterprise etc…
business mentoring / workshop
Student awards - most enterprising students
Used the learning for research - develop papers for conferences etc.
XING tool (more flexible to work with) / Sim Venture
Developing faculty ambassadors
developing incubator
Further enterprise modules
Some of the barriers - MMU & L’Pool Uni
diversity of subject
semantics - the word enterprise / the words you use / relevance
relevance to non business school?
Not part of everybodies aganda
lack of training and awareness
Academic validity
