Global Entrepreneurship Week is an international celebration of innovators, creators and budding businesses, who launch start-ups that bring ideas to life, drive economic growth and seek to have a positive impact on the world around them.

This year we’re celebrating businesses who “Grow with Purpose” by running a programme of events across our BIPC South Yorkshire network.

So, if you are interested in exploring how businesses in your area have developed and embedded purpose as a principle and are successfully growing and are keen to get some tips and advice on how you can embed your purpose into the heart of your business, this could be the event for you.

Programme of Events

1.00 – 1.30 Networking lunch – your chance to meet with like-minded businesses and staff from the BIPC

1.30 – 2.15 Enterprising Barnsley – Getting started in business (including how and why you should do Market Research)

2.30 – 3.00 Intro to Business Information & Market Research Databases and Intellectual Property

3.15 – 3.45 “My Purpose Story” – hear from local entrepreneurs about how they have embedded their purpose into their business and thrived

This event is open for anyone to attend, whether you’re an entrepreneur, an existing business, or only just starting to think about your business. We have other events running across South Yorkshire this week too, so if you can’t make it to this one, check out what else we have going on.
