Want to Be an Entrepreneur? Read Richard Bransons’ Advice!

When you think of ‘entrepreneurship’ who do you think of? One of the first names that probably springs to mind is Richard Branson and with good reason – he started his first business at just 15 and now owns the wildly successful Virgin empire which included an airline, record label, trains and more!

So if you’re thinking about your own future and feel like building a business is something you’d like to explore, you could do worse than read his Advice to Young Entrepreneurs. Then use the skills you’ve identified and built through the Young Professional Hub to put it into practice!
