Enactus Solent is part of a global society that uses entrepreneurial actions to create community-based projects aimed at improving the lives of minority groups & the vulnerable.
The projects need to follow a framework/criteria. So need to consider the relevant economic, social and environmental factors and the team then needs to effectively empower people who are in need by applying business and economic concepts and an entrepreneurial approach to improve their quality of life and standard of living.
When creating a new project we research the issues in the community and identify a need. We then use entrepreneurial actions to develop ideas. We put these ideas into actions with the aim of teaching skills and knowledge to empower people to become independent and the final aim of a project is that it is sustainable when we take a step back.
At the end of the year around March, Enactus UK holds the regional and national competitions where we present our results and compete against the other 51 universities in the country. The UK winners then attend the Enactus world cup that is going to be held in Beijing this year where they compete against the 37 other countries.
One of Enactus’ main aims and one that Enactus Solent like to focus on is developing you. Whether that’s from our sponsor companies or from the experience you get leading or being part of a team. In fact, some sponsor company’s priorities Enactus students when they apply because they know they have more skills than your average student.
