Entrepreneurial support network turns to Zoom as FEO Ignition lights up for 2021

An opportunity to learn how business start-ups fast track their way to success sparks into action again next month.

FEOignition, from Hull and East Yorkshire business group For Entrepreneurs Only, takes to Zoom from April 14, with company bosses behind it keen to ensure the support network continues throughout the ongoing pandemic restrictions.

The seven-week block covers off ideas, target markets, USPs,marketing and much more.

It delves into pricing, capital raising, resilience and future-proofing too.

Jan Brumby, chief executive, said: "FEOignition is designed and delivered by a group of real life entrepreneurs who know exactly how it feels to start a business and who want you to succeed in your new venture.

"Starting your own business can be stressful and bewildering at times, and there’s a seemingly endless range of problems and barriers to overcome. FEOignition ensures that you’re supported and surrounded by like minded people – and it’s free!

"I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who is starting their business, to ensure that they get up and running with confidence and ambition."

The sessions have been designed by local entrepreneurs, and run from 6pm to 8pm every Wednesday.

They are free, but commitment for the full un is sought, with the aim for delegates to then become ambassadors for the programme, such as Go Hire's Sally Wray.

Jan, a judge in the Hull Business Awards, added: “This is an opportunity to learn from the real life experiences and mistakes of others.

“Spending time with experienced entrepreneurs gives personal access to invaluable hints and tips, and the opportunity to meet real life role models and inspirational speakers.”
