The EBC hosted the second in a series of ‘Meet the Entrepreneur’ events on Wednesday 2nd March.

This seminar featured Peter Czapp, co-founder of The Wow Company, a proactive accountancy practice that advises small creative businesses across the UK. Peter and his team are committed to helping their clients make more profit and pay less tax, whilst at the same time having more fun.

The event attracted staff and students from across the University and they heard Peter share his experiences as an entrepreneur and the valuable insights and lessons he has learned along the way.

Organised by Mark Painter, Business Development Manager for The Business School, this series of events aim to provide students and staff the opportunity to hear about the personal journey of the profiled entrepreneur, learn about their experiences as a business owner and their approach to founding and growing a successful business.

Mark Painter said, ‘as one of our valued Entrepreneurs in Residence I am delighted that Peter has been able to visit us and share his experiences’. Mark added, ‘during his presentation Peter stressed the importance of being focussed, clearly defining your targets, and doing the tasks that really matter – something for us all to think about, regardless of our own personal goals and ambitions.’

The next event in this series will be on Wednesday 20th April and will profile Simon Phelps, founder of Fluvial Innovations Ltd. For more information and to book a place, stuents and staff should follow the link to www.bucfe.com/events
