To give us a bit of inspiration, we will be joined by student entrepreneurs who are making a difference right here on campus.
Sam from OMS Tech, a recycling business set up to fight e waste which takes your unwanted phones and laptops and operates out of the campus sustainability hub/swap shop in 1D015 and Fred Peck whose vintage clothing shop, located on the patio opposite Core 24, is full of great fashion items and is changing the way people buy clothes.
All welcome. No need to register – just turn up on the day.
