Missing out on securing a Santander Entrepreneurship Grant

The Bournemouth University Graduate Entrepreneurship Fund was launched earlier this year through University’s partnership with the Santander bank. Graduates running their own business were invited to apply for a portion of the £15,000 fund by explaining how the money would help them to grow.

Following on from successfully hosting Work Experience last year, we have been approached by a student who wishes to work with us as a Apprentice.

We desperately need more support fulfilling orders and supporting customers so it seems like a wise move to welcome him into the Company.

We would like to invest in his future and support his future training and further education so we had submitted a request for £2,000 from the Bournemouth University Graduate Entrepreneurship Fund to support this.

Unfortunately it has been announced today that we were unsuccessful with our application. We congratulate the Winners: Back of the Net, Esports News UK, Loco Lime, Inferno Studios and Vivid Digital.

We will now reconsider our options and hopefully continue to invest in the employment of an Apprentice.
