•THERE IS NO SOCIAL DESIGN NETWORK IN SCOTLAND

•THERE IS NO SI CAMP, BGV OR NESTA IN SCOTLAND

•THE BUSINESS AND ENTREPRENEUR SECTOR DOES NOT BIND TOGETHER

OUR FOCUSDESIGN, BUSINESS, NETWORK

THANK YOU!FOR YOUR TIME

QUESTIONS?

QUESTIONS ASKEDHOW MANY PEOPLE WILL BE ON THE PROGRAMME?

10

HOW MANY OF THOSE 10 WILL BE EXPECTED TO TEACH THE NEXT GROUP?

AT LEAST 3

WILL THERE BE HOMEWORK IN BETWEEN SESSIONS?

YES

DO I NEED TO HAVE AN IDEA ALREADY?

NO BUT YOU DO NEED AN AREA OF FOCUS.THIS COULD BE ANYTHING FROM SUSTAINABILITY TO A DESIRE TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO SELL YOURSELF

QUESTIONS ASKEDCAN THE NIGHTRIDERS WORK ON ONE IDEA TOGETHER?

YES. COLLABORATION AND TEAM WORKING IS A CORE ASPECT OF THE PROGRAMME

IS THIS A BUSINESS INCUBATION PROGRAMME?

NO. NOR AN ACCELERATOR PROGRAMME. IT’S A COURSE AND A NETWORK

I DON’T WANT TO SET UP A BUSINESS, IS THIS RIGHT FOR ME?

YES - A BUSINESS IS NOT THE PRIMARY GOAL OF NIGHTRIDERS. BUILDING A SUSTAINABLE NETWORK THAT WILL SUPPORT YOU

TO ACHIEVE WHAT YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE IS THE AIM

QUESTIONS ASKEDI’M NOT A SOCIAL ENTREPRENEUR ( WHATEVER THAT IS?! ) IS THIS RIGHT FOR ME?

YES. NIGHTRIDERS IS CHALLENGING THE STEREOTYPE OF SOCIAL ENTREPRENEUR. WHAT’S IMPORTANT IS YOU HAVE PASSION. WE CARE ABOUT DOING GOOD IN THE WORLD AND

BELIEVE THAT CAN HAPPEN IN LOTS OF DIFFERENT WAYS

HOW BIG AN INFLUENCE WILL SNOOK’S DESIGN METHODOLOGY HAVE?

THIS WILL PLAY A BIG PART IN THE PROGRAMME BUT IS NOT THE CORE FOCUS. NIGHTRIDERS WILL HAVE CREATIVITY AT IT’S CORE AND THIS WILL IMPACT THE WAY WE WORK,

HOW WE THINK AND HOW WE DO THINGS

I’M KIND OF FAMILIAR WITH SNOOK AND THEIR DESIGN PROCESS ALREADY - SHOULD I STILL APPLY?

YES - THIS COURSE WILL TAKE WHAT YOU ALREADY KNOW TO THE NEXT LEVEL

QUESTIONS ASKEDWILL THE SUPPORT BODIES FROM SCOTLAND BE INVOLVED IN THIS?

WE ARE KEEPING THEM ALL IN THE LOOP AND WILL INVITE THEM ALL TO OUR FINAL EVENT AT THE END OF THE PROGRAMME

I HAVE A JOB - CAN I STILL APPLY?

YES. AS LONG AS YOU CAN COMMIT THE TIME AND ENERGY TO YOUR NIGHTRIDERS EXPERIENCE

I COULDN’T MAKE THE LAUNCH PARTY - CAN I STILL APPLY?

YES
