Saturday June 5, 2004
While many students toy with the idea of starting their own business, it’s employees already working for organisations who are more likely to explore launching a start-up, according to a survey by Shell LiveWire. The funder, which supports business start-ups, says 45% of the enquiries it receives comes from employees, while the unemployed and those at college or university account for 22% and 19% respectively. Launching a manufacturing-led business accounted for only 10% of all enquiries, retail-led business accounted for 29%, whilst service-led businesses accounted for 61% of all enquiries.
