BOOTCAMP FOR IDEAS

- BRIANNA MORRIS-GRANT AND PEYTON HUTCHINS

IF you have big ideas but no idea how to get started, Bond University has a new bootcamp designed to whip ideas into shape.

The camp is a high-energy, one-day business symposium designed exclusivel­y for nextgen corporate adventurer­s in Year 11 or 12 who are dreaming of a career as successful entreprene­urs.

Gold Coast start-up success story Samantha Davies – founder of Unforgetta­ble Proposals, a company that helps hopeful husbands bring together the perfect wedding proposal – will be joined by an impressive panel of young businesspe­ople at this year’s Bond University Ideas Camp.

Samantha, a Bond University alumna, said she was excited to share her experience of building her proposal business from start-up to success story at this year’s Ideas Camp.

“With the vast growth in start-ups around the world, I’ve always believed education institutio­ns should have entreprene­urship as a hot topic and it’s great to see Bond University leading the way,” she said.

The free event starts tomorrow, with registrati­on open until midnight tonight.
