Jayne.. from SPEED


Hi I’m Jayne, and I work for the Hive at NTU.

I have the fancy title of SPEED Project Co-ordinator, but if you’ve been under a rock for the past twelve months you won’t know that SPEED is Student Placements for Entrepreneurs in EDucation. We help students start businesses in their placement year or alongside their studies. We’ve had some real success stories, too. Quite a few people heard about SPEED through Thirsty Thursday and are now making their dream a reality with our support. So it’s definitely worth a visit, the speakers are all young business people and it’s usually a good evening. I’m all for Social Networking online, but it should be offline in the real world too!

The real reason Harriet has asked me to contribute to this blog is that I can’t get enough of Web 2.0 (sadly) and working on the SPEED project has meant that I’ve investigated quite a few. Blogging is fun because you write something to cause a stir, and try and get people to debate it with you. Anyone can do it, yes even Muppets like Sim (Not really. Sim’s not a Muppet; he has everyone exactly where he wants them…)

Now for the ad break - check out our website www.speedproject.ac.uk, blog www.speedproject.blogspot.com, wiki www.ntuspeed.wetpaint.com

See you at Thirsty Thursday!
Jayne
