Students’ Wild Life wins young enterprise award

Representing the North-West, students from Chester University’s Business School were recognised at the Young Enterprise UK Start-Up Final. The team was presented with the award for Best Pitch Deck, and team member Eleanor Jones was named Student Entrepreneur of the Year.

Chester was the first of 15 teams from across Britain to speak to Anne, Princess Royal, who showed great interest in their eco business, A Wild Life. The business offers seeded cardboard as a more sustainable way to package goods. The card, integrated with flower or vegetable seeds, can then be planted.
