The Leadership and Entrepreneurship Accelerator Programme (LEAP) Jersey 2024 runs from 10th to 22nd July.
This year promises to be the biggest to date with 88 delegates, including 49 international participants coming to Jersey from 20 destinations. This makes it the most globally diverse group of students ever gathered in Jersey.
Ewan Spraggon, Managing Director of Baker Tilly Channel Islands, commented: “We are delighted and proud to sponsor the LEAP programme for the second consecutive year. The programme brings together students from around the world and empowers them to develop entrepreneurial and life skills. It’s a fantastic opportunity for attendees, and at Baker Tilly Channel Islands, we are pleased to enable four students to attend this event, gain valuable business and life skills, and create lifelong memories and connections.”
Dr. Peter Le Masurier, Director of Business and Education from Jersey College for Girls Foundation, added: “LEAP wouldn’t be possible without the generous support of our sponsors, which allows us to enable any student in Jersey to attend LEAP irrespective of their financial position. Watching these future leaders grow in confidence, make connections, and develop the skills for later life is truly inspirational.”
