About the Connect and Grow Series
In partnership with Patch, the St Mary’s University Business Clinic is looking to build relationships with local organisations and academic experts within the Business School. The ultimate objective is that our business students will help run the clinics and sit in on the advice sessions, developing their business knowledge. This would ultimately lead to more practical assessments based on consultancy projects with local businesses thus enabling our students to graduate with the skills and expertise to hit the ground running as they start their business careers.
