Ignite! said, "We were delighted to involve Otocos in the delivery of key components of the programme, especially drawing on their experience and expertise in helping young people identify their strengths as they develop their skills in business planning."
The sessions that Wendy created and delivered were:
1. The difference between a Great Idea and a Business.
2. How to Prioritise. Creating a Plan to make your idea a reality.
