CFE partners with Founders Forum
We’re delighted to announce a partnership with Founders Forum.
Together, we’re scaling CFE’s flagship entrepreneurial development programme NEF+. The new approach will see larger cohorts and increased frequency per year.
‘NEF+ in partnership with Founders Forum’ will allow scaling companies to sponsor emerging leaders to join the programme, boosting entrepreneurial training and retention within scaling companies. It will remain open for individual applicants and we will be making 30% of places available with funding support for diverse candidates.
