Yes Hub

As the lead in the North East Wales Youth Entrepreneurship Hub (NE YES Hub) we are committed to the needs of our area as a whole to innovate and grow. Together with our partners at Glyndŵr University, our NE YES Hub's vision is to "develop and nurture self-sufficient, entrepreneurial and innovative young people in North East Wales and who contribute positively to economic and social success of the area." Fundamentally the future of the economy in North East Wales depends on young people and their ability to be creative and entrepreneurial, supporting and pushing forward the existing businesses and finding the new markets of the future. Our activities focus on 3 main themes identified in the Welsh Government's Youth Entrepreneurship Strategy.

• Engaging: Promoting the value of entrepreneurship to create opportunities and develop young people.


• Empowering: Providing young people with entrepreneurial learning opportunities.


• Equipping: Supporting young people to create and grow businesses

We are very proud of our partners and stakeholders in North East Wales who work with both Coleg Cambria and Glyndŵr University through a variety of projects. We draw on the experience and expertise of the business community to support young entrepreneurs and, likewise, offer businesses the opportunity to work with students and graduates to explore new business ideas, succession planning proposals and collaborative enterprise projects.
