Westminster Enterprise Network (WeNetwork) is the University of Westminster’s entrepreneurial network, bringing together students and recent graduates with industry to develop their entrepreneurial skills, engage in self-employment work and create businesses. We connect students with the world of work to solve real-world problems and widen participation in entrepreneurship, enterprise opportunities, and education.
We support businesses and public or voluntary sector organisations to work with our diverse community of almost 20,000 UK and international students. We find you the right academic and student partners from across the University to create projects which tackle real-world challenges, create new business ventures and empower students from underrepresented groups and intersections.
See how we support our community of student and recent graduate freelancers and entrepreneurs:
Work with our students – Live briefs & hackathons
WeNetwork will help you create a project for our students which can benefit your business or organisation and help our students develop their skills, understanding and social or commercial awareness. Get in touch if you’d like our students to undertake some research, develop ideas, create content or build prototypes.
Network with our students
Meet and inspire our students by contributing to a networking event as a guest speaker. Share your expertise and challenges and get instant feedback.
Talk directly to our students by appearing on WeNetwork’s Passion & Hustle Podcast. Previous episodes of the show are available featuring a range of successful entrepreneurs, self-driven freelancers and motivated individuals giving their best advice on pursuing their ambitions.
Support our start-ups
You can help the next generation of entrepreneurs by supporting the Westminster Incubator, a new inclusive approach to supporting the creation and development of new businesses and social enterprises. If you’re interested in contributing as a mentor, advisor, speaker, sponsor or investor, connect with our team by emailing [email protected].
Co-create with us
We’re always looking to innovate and improve how we connect students with the wider world, so if you have ideas for inclusive events or activities or new ways of working with our academics, students or graduates, let us know.
