Enterprise

We will also be running enterprise sessions as part of the Youth Zone’s core offer and this is a great opportunity for young budding entrepreneurs to get involved in business and a great addition to anyone’s CV.

Young people who join our enterprise team develop great leadership, time-management and finance skills. We also give members the chance to sell at trade stands throughout the UK and see their concepts and products designed and sold in the real world!
