1. ["", "", "", "", ""]

There are two important things which a successful business needs at the start: a
good idea and a strong business plan. If you have the idea, we can help you with
the skills, knowledge and support you need to develop a first-rate business plan.
Furthermore, you could win up to £50,000 to help develop your business idea.
Many of the participants in previous competitions have founded companies and
gone into business with the knowledge they need to be successful. So it is not only
the winners of the competition who could end up running companies and making
healthy profits.

and knowledge.
In part 2, our expert professionals will be your coaches and mentors to help you
develop expert business plans.
