Into enterprise will inspire, encourage and develop
young entrepreneurs across the borough of Camden.
We will provide an infrastructure to support the
enterprise journey from pre business start ups to the
launch of the business.
The Hub will operate as a base to enable traditionally
disempowered young people to develop their own
powerful networks.
The Hub will link to other enterprise centres, provide
role models and peer mentors to guide and
encourage new generations of young entrepreneurs.
Alongside the programme, Into Enterprise will offer
links to apprenticeships, training and further and
higher education.

‘The support has given me direction. I had the business
idea for months but not really progressed with it, now
we have all these suggestions such as pop up shops
and stalls etc it has opened up so many options.’
‘Into Enterprise has made me feel important, because
someone is remembering me. They are prepared to
accommodate any idea, no matter how small or silly,
they are always willing to help you.’
‘...it has been straightforward. Perfect. It is what it is.’
‘The project staff are always very helpful and I would
like to single them out. They always try and find a
solution for you and for that I am grateful.’
