MES footwork Pitch

This is me speaking breifly about the business for Newcastle University Enterprise awards, which i won!

Matt visited the Careers Centre November 2007 to discuss his business idea and how to get started, taking all advice onboard and with 100% dedication, he has worked hard to establish his business over the last 12 months, He received a grants which contributed towards essential items of equipment he needed to get the business started. Matthew has committed a huge amount of time to his business idea and he is now starting to see the rewards, it is fantastic to hear he has a number of high street retailers wanting to buy from him and that his idea is coming to fruition. He is an inspiration to other students thinking about starting their own business.

Its Wednesday afternoon, and in between running a business and revising for an Economics exam on Tomorrow, Ive found a little bit of time to gather my thoughts for this competition.

Its amazing to be selected as one of the finalists! I am, as I'm sure every other finalist is, very excited about what can be gained from this competition. I found out about this the day after I won an award for my business plan through Newcastle University! So already being on a high after that and then finding out about this, its safe to say I was smiling!

The thing I love the most is reading peoples profiles and really seeing the passion and belief everyone has for their business, for me that's definatley a necessity if your going to make a business a success.

I have to congradulate The Entrepreneurs forum, they are doing great things with this Challenge to help promote entrepreneurship in the North East while also helping boost the profile of many local businesses, its quality.

Ok, Sun is shining and ive got to get a dinner suit for the event tomorrow! Then its back to the books! 'i love exams!*!?'

Enjoy the Sunshine!
Matt
