Peter Mountford, Chairman, Heropreneurs
“We are delighted to be working with Warwick Business School again in 2020 to deliver this fantastic opportunity to the military community. Our partnership is something that Heropreneurs is extremely proud of, and Warwick Business School have worked closely with us to offer significant opportunities to the military community over several years. Particularly during this period of considerable uncertainty for many entrepreneurs, the 100% bursaries for WBS’ internationally acclaimed programmes through the Heropreneurs’ Warwick Business School Awards offer immense value to our winners.”
Andy Lockett, Dean, Warwick Business School
“We are delighted to be partnering with Heropreneurs for a third successive year. This is a wonderful charity that looks to help British Armed Forces veterans fulfil their potential and succeed with their entrepreneurial ideas.
“The men and women leaving the Armed Forces already have tremendous skills and a willingness to work hard and learn, which has been developed during their years of service. At Warwick Business School, we can provide them with the knowledge to succeed with their business.
“Entrepreneurship and innovation is central to the identity of WBS, and we have world-class academics sharing their expertise in the classroom. As the home of the Enterprise Research Centre and the new Gillmore Financial Technology Centre, WBS is producing pioneering research that feeds into our MBA and executive courses.
“Nothing excites me more than seeing our graduates set-up their own business and succeed in building an enterprise built on the knowledge and expertise garnered at WBS.”
