If you are a Twitter user, you will be familiar with Follow Friday (or #FF<\/strong>) \u2013 every Friday people tweet their recommendations about who to follow. I have been following Global Entrepreneurship Week which kicks off from 17-23 November 2014.\u00a0 So in honour of that I have taken entrepreneurship as my first #FF<\/strong> theme.<\/p>\n

If you are considering starting your own business or have a general interest in entrepreneurship then I recommend NACUE<\/a>\u00a0who support student led enterprise activities on campus. The Prospects website<\/a> has a wealth of information including a handy start-up check-list. Of course the Global Entrepreneurship Week<\/a> website is packed with information, links to events and some superb resources to get you started.<\/p>\n

You may also want to use LinkedIn to network with individuals you know, but I\u2019d definitely recommend joining groups like On Startups<\/a>, the British Library Entrepreneur Network<\/a> and Real Business<\/a>. These groups provide opportunities for you to ask questions, join topical discussions, and build your network.<\/p>\n

Back to #FF<\/strong>, there is a wealth of information on Twitter, you may want to consider following these accounts if you are interested in entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n
