Lesley Robinson, Head of Business Support with Cumbria Chamber of Commerce has been responsible for pulling the activity together.
“We’ve always found it really important to highlight and support Global Entrepreneurship Week and every year we build on activity and try and do things bigger and better. This year we have a great range of free 1hr webinars very kindly delivered by a number of local experts including Dodd & Co Accountants, David Allen IT, Burnetts, Creative Hutch, Growth Company and Barclays Eagle Lab. I’d encourage anyone thinking about self-employment, those new to being their own boss or indeed business owners who just want to refresh or find out more to get in touch and make bookings”.
For anyone based in Barrow we’re also holding an in person event at The Forum on Thursday 16th November from 10.30am to 2.30pm with three presentations. Local entrepreneurs will share their journey and there will be lunch and networking opportunities.
