Student Enterprise | 2019 Winners announced
It's been another inspiring and busy year for SETsquared Bath Student and Graduate Enterprise, and we are counting down the days towards the final event in the 18/19 academic calendar; the inaugural SETsquared Graduate Enterprise Showcase. We have ten graduate entrepreneurs from the University of Bath in the running to pitch at the event including 2018 graduates Eoin Sharkey and Nia Simpson.
Nia and Eoin were both recipients of the graduate Innovation Award and this year we are thrilled to be supporting more highly innovative graduate startups from the University in the 2019 Innovation Award cohort including an AI development company Neuro AI and innovative giveaway platform Liveprize. We have also come to the conclusion of our annual Dragons' Den, Apps Crunch and Business Plan competitions. Over 150 students have taken part and we are pleased to announce all of the winners.
