UKAUS Pty: Where is the Support for Entrepreneurs?

    SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, January 06, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Sydney-based UKAUS Pty investigates why budding entrepreneurs in Australia are being left to fend for themselves.

It's long been said that entrepreneurs and elite athletes share many characteristics. Like athletes entrepreneurs work harder, move faster, risk more and face greater challenges than anyone else. To survive in business entrepreneurs need incredible resilience and determination and to develop this a great deal of support and motivation is needed. However an increasing concern sweeping throughout Australia is that, unlike elite athletes, entrepreneurs are not receiving enough support to nurture or even identify their talents. Business experts are concerned that many promising entrepreneurs are not aware of their gift or encouraged to develop it and as a result are put off from pursing their business goals due to a lack of confidence in their own abilities.

UKAUS Pty believes that this lack of support could in the next few years have a hugely damaging effect on Australia's small business community, and the economy as a whole. With many young people believing the entrepreneurial dream is unobtainable, Australia could soon see a drop in start-up creation. A drop in start-ups could not only impact the jobs market and lead to significantly less varied roles for young people, but it could also damage local communities by reducing the number of independent, vibrant businesses which act as a hub for local morale and drive funding for local projects.

Much like how athletes are encouraged from an early age, with dedicated talent scouts scouring schools and sports clubs to identify talent and help them on to the road to success. UKAUS Pty would like to see the same done for promising entrepreneurs and believe the key to stimulating entrepreneurship in Australia lies in removing obstacles and helping young people believe that entrepreneurship is a viable and rewarding career option. The firm have shared some innovative ways Australia can encourage and nurture youth entrepreneurship.

1. School
Instead of relying on general business teachers UKAUS Pty believes schools should integrate specialised entrepreneurship teachers into the curriculum, who are willing to provide extra coaching to those with a talent for business. By offering competitions centred on product creation and business planning the firm believe young people will realise a passion for business.

2. Role Models
Young people idolise popstars, actors and sports stars, so why not entrepreneurs? Opening young people's eyes to the achievements of entrepreneurs and promoting inspiring stories of how some of the world's greatest entrepreneurs hit back against adversity to reach greatness is sure to inspire a new generation of goal orientated business minds.

3. Entrepreneurs Giving Back
UKAUS Pty firmly believes that established entrepreneurs have a crucial responsibility to inspire and support the next generation by sharing their own experiences and advice. The firm themselves offer specialised workshops and networking events to help those interested in sales and marketing gain the skills and experience needed to pursue entrepreneurship and succeed.
