WES was relaunched in the 2023-24 academic year in conjunction with the creation of the Entrepreneurship Hub. This forms a global network of students, alumni and Fellows to explore entrepreneurship in the broadest sense.
This interpretation of entrepreneurship encompasses:
Venturing - taking an idea to market, creating a novel way to create value for a user/customer, creating an investable organisation
Social entrepreneurship - founding an organisation to address a social or environmental problem
Cultural entrepreneurship - founding an initiative around art and culture) and
Entrepreneurial skills - transferring to other arenas in business and society.
The programme will include workshops, speaker events, mentoring, networking opportunities and the annual Wolfson Enterprise Competition. The aim is to demystify entrepreneurship and make it a natural career choice for Wolfson students and alumni.
For more information about the programme, or to suggest a topic or speaker, contact entrepreneur@wolfson.cam.ac.uk.
