Delighted to be a mentor for a second year on #OxfordVentureBuilder - can’t wait to see who I’ve been matched with following the weekend’s bootcamp (Entrepreneurship Centre Saïd Business School Marc Ventresca) - see you all in Oxford on 6 June & good luck to all ventures with the programme

That brings Oxford Venture Builder bootcamp to an end, but the journey is only just beginning 🤩 we’ve much more planned for our teams over the next few weeks.

Finishing up an amazing weekend with short pitches about the business ideas in the room 🎤 Great opportunity for teams to pull together all their learnings from the bootcamp, share new perspectives for others to consider, and offer support 🙌

Talking all things funding 💰 don’t forget, our own Oxford Seed Fund provides entrepreneurs like you with access to capital - we invest up to £100,000 in the top Oxford start-ups 📈 details here: sbs.ox.ac.uk/research/centr…

Wrapping up our final session of the day in conversation with experienced entrepreneur Tarig El-Sheikh.

“The one trait that I think increases an entrepreneur’s chance of success? Grit. Every time someone knocks you down, you get right back up and you keep going.”

Much of OVB bootcamp is about practical exercises to help our teams explore their business ideas further. This afternoon, Eva Hoffmann is taking everyone through #prototyping and MVP - minimum viable product.

It’s a sunny morning at Saïd Business School for day two of Oxford Venture Builder ☀️ this morning we’re joined by Bolaji Lawal-Sofoluwe to dive into #BusinessModel design 🖌

Wrapping up day one of Oxford Venture Builder bootcamp and we're joined by Oxford MBA alum Bartek Ogonowski, sharing his #entrepreneurship journey so far. He co-founded LEVRA with a fellow Oxford MBA, and the venture was born out of our very own Entrepreneurship Project 🚀

Yasmine El-Mehairy led today's Oxford Venture Builder sessions, talking all things customer & market analysis 🔍

❗️If you're an idea-stage #entrepreneur , it's important to get clear on who your customer is, how your business will meet their needs, and who your competitors are.

We asked our Oxford Venture Builder participants which traits, behaviours or attitudes they associate with #entrepreneurs . Here are some of their responses! Are there any traits you'd add to the list?
