Anyone can write a business plan, but not many people can write an exciting one! An effective business plan is one that gets results, whether compiled for internal management use or to raise finance.

This workshop is ideal for businesses at all stages but particularly early-stage and growth businesses looking to raise finance. It explores what information is critical in a business plan, what should be left out and how it can best be presented depending on the type of finance that is required for the business i.e. bank debt, angel investment or grant funding.

There is then a chance for delegates to interact with the presenter and the audience by testing their own business’ value proposition to understand how it can be turned from being an idea into a potential business. In the second part of the workshop, each section of a business plan is discussed with particular reference to your business.

This course will teach you everything you need to know about how to prepare a ‘perfect’ business plan, looking at the difference between an internal business plan and preparing a document to raise finance.

We will be working on your business plan throughout the day so bring what you already have.

Welcome to Aston Entrepreneurs! We would like to announce that Aston Entrepreneurs had a successful launch at the fresher’s fair at Aston University. It was stunning to see the vast interest in entrepreneurship among freshers, undergraduates and post-graduates.

We are really excited to bring you, our members, a warm welcome to our community. As planned, we are currently preparing a full-scaled year with plenty of interesting and inspiring events that will enhance the business environment at Aston University. In the upcoming weeks we will have famous entrepreneurs coming to Aston such as Gareth Emberton – Director, The Entrepreneur’s Coach and David Langer from the Oxford-based startup Groupspaces.com. Apart from inspiring talks from successful entrepreneurs, we will also host networking events with other university enterprise societies. In addition, we will provide practical startup/business – oriented workshops to enhance your skills to succeed at the marketplace. This is just a few events that we will provide for you throughout the year.
