Business Competition Launched!


The Inverness College UHI Business Competition is now open for entries. 

Thanks to the sponsorship from Business Gateway, Developing the Young Workforce Inverness & Central Highland, Harper Macleod LLP, Impact Hub Inverness, Johnston Carmichael, Prince's Trust and the University of the Highlands and Islands, we have £5,000 in prizes up for grabs.

The competition is open to anyone aged 16 or over who lives within the UHI catchment area (that includes the Highlands and Islands, Perthshire and Moray) or to any UHI student.  There is no business plan required and you are only one idea and four questions away from a fantastic cash prize.
