Enterprise Week 2008
What is Enterprise Week?
Enterprise Week (17-23 November 2008), part of Global
Entrepreneurship Week, is a national celebration of enterprise with
thousands of events and activities happening across the UK. Last year there were over 5,000 events and
more than half a million people took part!
Over 2,000 organisations run events and activities during the
week to encourage people to have ideas and make them happen. This
can be by starting up a new business or social enterprise, or by
having ideas and making them happen in the workplace.
What is Global Entrepreneurship Week?
In 2008, Enterprise Week will be part of the first ever Global Entrepreneurship Week. It's a worldwide celebration of enterprise, which aims to unleash young people's enterprising ideas and address some of society's biggest issues, from poverty reduction through to climate change. More than 60 countries are currently signed up to run their very own versions of Enterprise Week
What do we mean by enterprise?
We mean to have ideas and make them happen. The package of
skills we use to describe enterprise are:
- creativity
- problem solving
- risk taking
- financial capability
- resourcefulness
- taking the initiative
- selling ideas
Young people can use their enterprise skills in many areas of
their life: at work, at home, or in education. All these vital
skills will help people to make their mark.
