RDP Sir Gâr’s Mentro Project is hosting an evening with business celebrities for rural Carmarthenshire’s young entrepreneurs.
The evening will feature motivational talks from international actress Samira Mohamed Ali, Dr Nerys Jones (Agri Advisor Solicitors), Ann Hughes (Designer) and Efa Gruffudd-Jones (Chief Executive of the Urdd) to inspire future businesspeople from rural areas of the county.
Samira said: “I’m really looking forward to being part of the evening. Mentro is a fantastic programme that enables young entrepreneurs to develop their business ideas with the right guidance and provides a great platform for future small and medium enterprise owners in Wales, who are the backbone of the Welsh economy.”
Mentro is run by Menter Bro Dinefwr and is part of the RDP Sir Gâr Rural Entrepreneurship project, providing free business support to young people aged between 16 and 30. Funding for the project has come from the Rural Development Plan (RDP) for Wales 2007 – 2013 through the Welsh Government and the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development.
They offer a free advice and guidance service on starting your own business and start-up loans and financial support available. They can also help with the creation of business plans and budgets.
Mentro Business Stars: March 17, 6pm-8.30pm, Broadway Country House, Laugharne.
