Venturefest Oxford 2016, set to take place on 29 June at the King’s Centre in Osney Mead Oxford, will host TV Apprentice finalist star, Bianca Miller; Global Head of Brand & Managing Director of Virgin Enterprises, Lisa Thomas well-known entrepreneur and broadcaster, Mark Stevenson; and CEO of Kintish Networking Skills, Will Kintish, amongst others. Rolling out an expanded programme of more than 20 interactive, practical business training sessions, the event aims to empower entrepreneurs with skills and knowledge in areas ranging from cyber security and digital marketing to intellectual property and the Internet of Things.
