University of South Wales / Big Ideas Wales Dream Big: Black Youth Enterprise Day

Dream Big: Black Youth Enterprise Day is an in-person entrepreneurship and empowerment event that celebrates Black entrepreneurship, leadership, resilience, and ambition. It brings together young people who are interested in business, self-employment, personal development, and building positive futures.

The event features an inspiring keynote speaker, a panel of entrepreneurs sharing their journeys, and practical business support from organisations such as Big Ideas Wales and partner groups. Attendees can hear about starting a business with limited resources, accessing finance, building a personal brand, using social media for growth, and overcoming barriers.

There are also interactive networking sessions where participants can ask questions, get personalised advice, and learn about different business sectors. The day ends with refreshments and informal networking, giving attendees more chances to connect with entrepreneurs, advisers, and other young people considering their next steps.
