Cash for Young Entrepreneurs and a Business Book Bonanza

Would you like a slice of £250,000 to start a business which will solve a pressing problem? 

Em Scicluna joined me on the show today to tell us about a new scholarship programme for 18-22 year olds, launched by business accelerator TwinklHive.

Em is TwinklHive's Resident Growth Manager at Twinkl Educational Publishing. She outlines what’s the scholarship includes, who can apply and how to do so, and what Twinkl are looking for.

Em also covers some other entrepreneurs supported by TwinklHive before this scheme – and her own background before taking on this role.

Also on the show: a bumper bonanza of business book recommendations with excerpts from interviews with purpose-driven entrepreneurs Johnny Pawlik and Sarah David, each talking about books which made a dramatic, powerful impact on their businesses and their lives.
