Podcasts with Peter Jones from the Foyne Jones show
We are excited to share our podcasts with Peter Jones, from the well known Foyne Jones show. Peter kindly invited us into his studio in Lewes, East Sussex, to interview us about the great work we do. Here are three video snippets below. The first one is all about an introduction to Enterprise Exchange and our management development programme.
The second video is sharing an ex-offenders self-employment success, after participating on our self-employment programme.
The third video shares all about the Dragons Den winner from the ITV show with Ross Kemp and his business plan in setting up a boxing club.
