Oxford Entrepreneurs’ President - Rajeeb Dey - met FT journalist Richard Donkin at the Enterprise Culture Policy Retreat, an event run by the HM Treasury and the Small Business Service.

Duncan Bannatyne, entrepreneur and one of the dragons from the BBC’s Dragons’ Den was interviewed alongside our very own President, Rajeeb, on BBC Radio Oxford. Raj commented that programmes such as Dragon’s Den have helped increased young people’s awareness of entrepreneurship as a viable ‘career path’ and shared his experiences as a young entrepreneur with the listeners.

The OE stall at the 2006 Fresher’s Fair will surely go down in history as one of the most successful ever – over 1000 new members are welcomed to the society as a result. This means we are now truly one of the largest societies in Oxford , and as ever we remain the largest FREE society. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of those who signed up, and to warmly invite them to all current and future OE events. It was a pleasure to meet some of you at the OE Freshers’ Fiesta at Escape.
