Projects
- Fashion Enterprise ProjectFor my final year university project, I was given the task of creating a viable business plan. My business proposal was a sustainable goods store based in Manchester. The business model was a social enterprise model, meaning that profits would be invested in small sustainable businesses, helping them to grow their business skill set to create their own standalone businesses. I had to pitch this idea to university professors, industry experts and investment bankers.
