Building a business while studying

Managing a business alongside studying has not always been easy, but Kevin describes it as challenging and achievable with the right mindset. For him, time management, goal setting and staying focused have been essential.

Kevin’s message is that balancing study and business takes commitment, but it is possible when you stay organised and keep working towards clear goals

Turning Learning into Action

Kevin’s story shows how learning at UGM Manchester can support students beyond the classroom. The communication skills, confidence and professional mindset developed through study have helped him approach his business with more structure and purpose.

His journey also highlights the value of enterprise skills for students across all subject areas. Whether students want to start a business, grow an idea or simply build confidence, enterprise can play an important role in personal and professional development.

Support from the Enterprise Hub

Kevin believes the Enterprise Hub can help students take the first step. Through guidance, encouragement, networking and opportunities to learn from others who already have business experience, Enterprise Hub aims to support students who are curious about entrepreneurship.

For Kevin, having access to enterprise-focused support can help students feel more confident about developing their ideas, asking questions and learning from people who understand the realities of running a business.

As Nyammings Catering continues to grow, Kevin hopes to build a stronger presence through a bigger space, a website and social media. His journey is a reminder that business growth takes time, but with the right support, planning and determination, students can begin turning their ideas into something real.
