This is an opportunity for service personnel, veterans and partners to explore their ideas for, and the viability of, potential new businesses with a variety of successful entrepreneurs and business leaders, who volunteer their time as part of the Heropreneurs Mentoring programme. T
his is a valuable opportunity for military, ex-military, and military partner future entrepreneurs to establish the viability of their business proposals, the considerations start-ups must take into account and the courses of action required for them to achieve their goals. This is not an opportunity for future entrepreneurs to seek investment. Instead it is an opportunity for potential entrepreneurs to gain useful insight, business advice and contacts.
Attendees will look at all aspects required for the successful establishment of a business, including –
Personal and family situation
Finances and pricing models
Their proposition
Target market
Competition
Their industry
Marketing
Customer relationships
Pricing model
Partners
Key assets
Key competencies
Why are you charging for events?
In the past we've not charged a ticket price for our events and have found the turnout to be unpredictable at best (one of our online workshops had 30+ registrations and only two attendees on the day). With all of our presenters volunteering their time to share their valuable training and knowledge, we owe it to them to make sure that the event is well-attended by people who want to be there. Since charging a nominal fee to those not on the Heropreneurs programme, we have seen an almost 100% attendance rate at all of our events.
As a charity, we would never want to exclude anybody from the Armed Forces community because of financial constraints, if you would like to attend this event but do not have the means to pay, please contact team@heropreneurs.co.uk for a discount code.
We are proud to be working with Brigantes to deliver this event and special thanks must go to RMR Bristol for hosting us. Without the support of our event partners and our Mentors freely giving their time to these events, they would simply not be possible.
