Why is it that some the most game-changing businesses to be developed over the last 25 years have come out of university campuses? It can’t be that only students have great ideas, or that entrepreneurs at university have unique access to capital, equipment and skills. After all you don’t stop having ...
Being a student entrepreneur is hard. Like it or not, your entire support network stands against you. Your parents tell you to focus more on university because they’re afraid you’re going to drop out, and be left without real purpose to life. Your academic tutor constantly questions why you aren’t spending ...

After running Harvey Morton I.T Support for the last three years, I’ve gained so much valuable life experience and I’ve learnt that you can’t always have things the way you want to. Therefore, we must master the art of losing. In this blog, I’ll be discussing some of my experiences ...
We've achieved a great deal in a short number of years, though there's much more too do in supporting our mission of 'Powering the Enterprise Generation'.
NACUE is a charitable organisation that supports 32,000 students and young people every year. As funding becomes harder to obtain, we rely on the generous support of donors to ensure our programs can continue to change the lives and aspirations of the younger generation.
A donation of any size goes a long way to furthering our work and really is greatly appreciated. Every gift matters in aiding our mission of ‘Powering the Enterprising Generation' but we mainly rely upon the generosity of our members and alumni to do this. By making a single or regular donation you can make a big difference. To learn more about how you can donate, please follow the links below.
NACUE are delighted to have supported a huge number of student-led societies over the years. You can see the number of established student-led societies on an interactive map below

Our events offer the young people we work with the opportunity to connect with our wider network, the experts and seasoned entrepreneurs in our community and the chance to be inspired to take the leap of faith into entrepreneurship. These events are attended by students and graduates from universities and colleges up and down the UK, as well as students from across Europe. Student Societies take centre stage at our events, alongside innovators, game changers and trail blazers of the UK startup ecosystem.
It has been a great pleasure working closely with NACUE. NACUE has supported me both on big and small issues within my role. Without NACUE’s support, Entrepreneurs Durham wouldn’t be where it is today.
The pleasure of seeing young people start something from nothing and watching them as they’re growing is wonderful. If we hadn’t had NACUE, we couldn’t do a lot of what we’re doing now. I can absolutely, categorically say that.
I am enjoying it (the enterprise society) a lot, and it’s great to be achieving something real. So often in college we plan to the point of doing the activity but then never actually do it.
