CSM, LCC and LCF students' semi-finalists for the 2021 Mayor’s Entrepreneur

We are pleased to announce that 16 CSM, LCC and LCF students are semi-finalists for the 2021 Mayor’s Entrepreneur!

The programme aims to create growth that makes London cleaner, greener and ready for the future; and, to ensure students see entrepreneurship as a viable career path and get the skills they need to succeed. The competition taps into the perspectives and creativity of London’s students to find solutions that will improve their city. For 2020/21 there are five awards with each of the winners receiving £20k to start up their business along with expert mentoring from staff at City Hall to get their idea to market.

The final will take place in June 2021, where the 24 finalists will get to pitch their ideas in front of a panel of celebrity judges and a live audience at an online event and where the five Mayor's Entrepreneurs for 2021 will be chosen. Good luck to all our semi-finalists!
