The #ThinkBigARU Pitching Competition is an exciting opportunity open to all Anglia Ruskin University students and recent graduates to pitch their business or business idea to a panel of entrepreneurs and people from the business community to receive feedback, support, networks, and other forms of investment.
“We were delighted to partner with the EIBF to support our engineering, sciences, and biomedical students and graduates in developing their entrepreneurial skills through our #ThinkBigARU Pitching Competition. This initiative challenges students and graduates to create innovative business ideas that address real-world problems, encouraging a strong entrepreneurial mindset alongside technical expertise.
"Working in diverse and interdisciplinary teams, our students and graduates explored commercially viable solutions, engaging with expert mentors from industry to strengthen their business proposals.
"The opportunity to pitch to a panel of entrepreneurs, potential investors, and business professionals offered invaluable experience and insight into the world of start-ups and innovation. It was a fantastic platform for our students and graduates to showcase their creativity, resilience, and potential as the next generation of responsible and entrepreneurial leaders."
