Celebrating One Year of the Sir Peter Rigby Centre Celebrating One Year of the Sir Peter Rigby Centre for Enterprise! 🎉⭐️

We’re thrilled to mark this milestone. In just one year, the Centre has become a vibrant hub on campus - engaging over 4,000 students, supporting 40 start-ups, and reaching more than 1,500 school pupils through its Enterprise Education in Schools programme.

To celebrate the anniversary, a series of events have been taking place across campus. Yesterday, Sir Peter met with several students who have already benefited from the Centre’s support.

We also caught up with two of them, Elias and Laella, to hear about their experiences.

This is just one of the reasons we've been shortlisted as a finalist for the European City of Innovation 2025! We can’t wait to see what the next year brings! 💙
