A NEW handbook aims to help guide Ulster University Business School students on the entrepreneurial path.
Written by Philip Bain, Start To Grow, aims not only to guide budding entrepreneurs on starting a business but also has a goal of raising £10,000 for The Prince’s Trust.
The book was recently launched at the Business School’s Coleraine campus where it will become a core text for final year students in the Department of Business and Enterprise.
Philip explained: “Start to Grow, is an entrepreneur’s guide to starting and growing a business. Based on my own personal experience of launching and growing businesses, it’s a very action orientated, easy to read book that will help people decide whether starting a business is for them. And if they do decide that it is – then the book explains how to start a business, grow it and make it a success.”
Dr Karise Hutchinson, Head of Business and Enterprise Department added: “Philip has very strong links with Ulster University having initially graduated with a first class degree in Business Studies and more recently becoming a Visiting Professor in the Business School. He has made a critical contribution to our students in providing personal insight into setting up a business. Philip’s drive and entrepreneurial flair have already provided great inspiration to our soon-to-be graduates and I’m sure that his book will act as a further catalyst towards encouraging them on an entrepreneurial journey.”
