Dr Nighat Awan OBE – Patron of the Business Startup Community
Welcome to the Business Startup Community! I have known the struggle and challenge of
starting and running your own business, and truly believe that with the aid and support of the Community – and the regional networking Clubs – you have a better chance of survival and indeed of making your business a huge success.
Since starting my first business at the age of 18 I have experienced the highs of business
success and the lows of serious illness. It was while in hospital for a long period that I first
realised that when you achieve success – however great or small – it is your duty to put
something back into the community, and since then I have strived to contribute to the
wellbeing and success of others. |

It is in the spirit of this ethos that I am delighted and excited to be the patron of the Business Startup Community. I firmly believe that this initiative will truly breathe new life and spirit into Britain’s Enterprise Economy – by sharing our experiences, successes and failures, we can enable one another to achieve our dreams and ambitions, and create opportunity for others and ourselves.
