Mind your Business (mindyourbusiness.uk) is a Durham University spin-out, supporting entrepreneurs and business support organisations in the Northeast of England. In this workshop, we will invite professionals from regional business support organisations to explore five myths in entrepreneurship, which seat problematically at the core of the many support programmes available in the UK. These need to be urgently debunked as they are negatively impacting the mental health of entrepreneurs and small business owners.
Mind your Business is grounded in two years of mental health and entrepreneurship research at Durham Business School. The MYB intervention model has attracted attention from policymakers and business support organisations in the region, which recently resulted in our first contract with Business Durham to support entrepreneurs and small business owners in the region. Equipped with research-based knowledge, MYB is committed to changing the narrative as to how entrepreneurs and small business owners are supported and this event will help us move in that direction.
