• Time to be your own boss!

    A brand new project which will work with 30 lucky residents of East Berkshire to help them launch their dream businesses, is being launched in November. The project, StriveLive, is being delivered by Enterprise CUBE, an experienced team, who have worked to support new businesses across the Berkshire since 2010.

    Jenna Moody, building better opportunities compliance officer, Slough Borough Council said: “This is an amazing chance to get fully funded training, support, win prizes and join a group of other start-ups who are all striving to start a business.”

    “If you are a resident who is currently unemployed or economically inactive and looking for a chance to make your business dream a reality then this course is for you.”

    StriveLive aims to provide the complete start-up incubator experience online, creating the ideal environment for a resident to start a new business. It is run by a small team who have all started and run their own businesses. Connecting 30 resident entrepreneurs, StriveLive offers a start-up community.

    It combines weekly live video training sessions with an easy-to-use online learning tool that residents can use in their own time. Residents are also offered lots of one-to one sessions with experienced entrepreneurs, who can offer mentoring and tailored advice to help them launch their businesses.

    If that wasn’t enough, thanks to Housing Solutions, there is also the opportunity for residents to win £1,500 of cash prizes to help them launch their businesses at the end of the project! StriveLive launches on 2 November and will run for 7 weeks.

    Interested residents should contact Enterprise CUBE or Slough Borough Council for more details.
