Enterprise support

Enterprise involves creating and applying ideas within practical situations. Enterprising behaviours encompass communication skills, adaptability, curiosity, proactivity and determination, which are also essential skills for employability.

We have a range of support available to create opportunities and help you to build your entrepreneurial skills. By fostering a culture of enterprise across the University, we are enhancing and strengthening both Derby’s entrepreneurial ecosystem and beyond to support entrepreneurs to thrive.

The next generation of future game-changers are right here in Derby. You are problem solvers, critical thinkers, risk takers, impact seekers and idea rebels. You are creating the change you want to see in the world. You are making your ideas happen.
