GradVenture is the pitching competition for buddingentrepreneurs from the University of London. The initiative was launched by The Careers Group at the University of London and is powered by Seven Hills social enterprise champions. It is now in its fourth year and the final, which was due to take place in March 2020, has now moved to an online format.
This Dragons' Den type event is aimed at inspiring entrepreneurship among students and recent graduates, as well as introducing them to networking opportunities beyond their college communities. Seven finalists from different member institutions of the University of London will be pitching their business ideas to four judges and competing for their share of a £10,000 prize pot and the Audience Vote.
Although the competition was only open to students at the colleges under the University of London umbrella, this event will probably be of interest to anyone who has a creative business idea. We will also be showing what last year's winner is now up to, and discussing what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur and to give a successful pitch.
