Entrepreneurship & Innovation
course is designed for future private entrepreneurs and public leaders who want to build new ventures
operating in, or selling into, traditionally public domains. Throughout the last few years, we have seen
a wave of new public entrepreneurs start companies that eventually sell to government institutions, or
directly to citizens, and a growing interest in these companies by ventures funds and other investors.

It is essentially aimed at helping students manage their organisation and improve its effectiveness.

Our Social Accounting & Audit programme will help to prove, improve, and account for the difference an organisation is making, helping leaders to plan and manage their organisation, as well as demonstrate what the organisation has achieved.
