Staffordshire University has come up with a novel way of supporting
fledgling businesses through the first two vital years. It has designed
a Foundation Degree in Small Business Start Up. Participants
on the programme study and run their business at the same time.
They are provided with high quality workspace within one of the
existing University Business Villages. This immediately gives an
advantage of a prestigious business address, excellent IT facilities
and support and access to wider University services. The teaching
input is geared towards acquiring the knowledge and skills required
to create a successful enterprise. The Business Villages contain
successful established enterprises who can be clients of, or suppliers
to the new companies.
The Enterprise and Fellowship Scheme at Staffordshire University
is the best promotion of entrepreneurship.
Staffordshire University has established the program which should
facilitate and support students in the creation of student enterprises.
The SPEED Scheme provides comprehensive support to turn students’
business ideas into a commercial reality whilst giving them the skills
they need to run their own company. The scheme is a collaborative
programme which is University based across the West Midlands and a
national SPEED website which can provide with up to date business
news and events, access to other students from across the UK who
have started a business with the support of SPEED.
