National Student Enterprise Conference

The UK's premier student enterprise conference.

From March 27-28, 2010, UCL Entrepreneurs Society, UCL Enterprise Society and UCL Advances partner with the National Consortium of University Entrepreneurs (NACUE) to host the UK's premier conference for 200 of the most promising student entrepreneurs and enterprising students in the UK.

As the country climbs out of the recession, 'business as usual' approaches to economic growth will just not cut it. Championing innovation and entrepreneur-led economic growth, this year's conference, Business NOT as Usual, brings together academics, researchers, investors, policy makers, international corporates and global entrepreneurs, with the objective to not only inspire, inform, connect and provide experiential opportunities to young entrepreneurs, but also to further the discourse, thought leadership and policy awareness around enterprise and innovation to drive the UK economy forward.
