Blenheim launches new search for business entrepreneurs
Blenheim is inviting entrepreneurs and new businesses to take part in a start-up scheme aimed at boosting their chances of success.
The opportunity is open to any business which is less than two years old or has fewer than five employees, is based within 20 miles of Blenheim, and can provide something which could be stocked in their shops.
Applications will need to be submitted by the 10th of May and the successful candidates will be notified by 24th May. They will then have the opportunity to pitch their ideas to Blenheim’s senior management team over the summer. After undergoing presentation training, they will take part in a final pitch on 26th June when the winning applicant will be selected and awarded with a contract to supply their products to the Estate’s retail outlets.
Anyone interested in taking part in the Blenheim Accelerator competition can find out full details and enter online at www.blenheim.org/startup
