Building a Business, Session 5: Scaling for Success

Join us for the final session of the Building a Business series and hear from the ‘Scaling For Success’ panel which includes Oxford alumni, Lily Elsner, Henry Majed and Sushma Shankar. They will be discussing the challenges and hurdles you might face when scaling your own venture and how to navigate this journey.

This session is facilitated by Maria Zubeldia, Director of the Entrepreneurship Centre.

Programme Overview:

Building a Business is a programme run by the Entrepreneurship Centre at Saïd Business School, in partnership with EnSpire Oxford. The programme is open to all current University of Oxford students and staff who are either in the early stages of exploring their own potential ventures or hoping to improve their own businesses. This foundational programme will give you the opportunity to understand and learn more about what it takes to run your own business.

Over the course of five weeks, you will learn the business fundamentals of customer development, how to market your idea and also to demystify financial literacy. This experience is designed to give you the tools and confidence to pursue your own potential ventures.

Each session can be booked individually. Attendance is not progressive but if you attend the first 3 sessions, you will be in with a chance of winning a ticket to the popular Oxford Saïd Entrepreneurship Forum (OSEF) this November.
