There are only 100 places on the course, which features an online learning portal, webinars, digital workshops and a celebratory wrap-up event.

The programme has been designed to give early-stage entrepreneurs the power to start, grow and succeed.

It will take place at the University of Portsmouth Portland building from 10am to 2pm.

Councillor Steve Pitt, deputy leader of the council, said: ‘It’s about helping to teach businesses not just to survive, but to thrive.’
