Using an Enterprise Club model and Dragons’ Den-style events, the aim is to increase the number of people involved in entrepreneurship within the region. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Two Dragons’ Den events have already been held for young people aged 16-24 years who are considering starting a business. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

They discuss their business concept and ideas with the Dragons who then provide feedback and advice.   ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The Dragons are locally-recruited business people who provide their time on a voluntary basis.  ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The next Dragons’ Den event will be held as part of a jobs and skills fair at Deeside Leisure Centre on the 24 September 2013 and is open to all ages. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
