| Abstract: |
36 second year business studies students attended a three day residential boot camp. Student teams battle on through a series of activities and tasks whilst still keeping their eye on the main goal: to pitch an innovative catering idea for the University campus. Students develop their skills, knowledge and understanding of enterprise through interactive sessions that provide greater insight into topics such as competition, idea creation, business planning and marketing gaining credits on the way in order to purchase valuable resources such as market research and projectors. |
