The Beacon Bursary

The Beacon Bursary, an annual business competition provides people with an opportunity to access finance, office space and a wealth of support and experience which will provide the best opportunity for their businesses to flourish.

  

One of the keys to the success of the initiative lies with the support offered by a team of business mentors from both private and public sector who have given up a substantial amount of time to support these fledgling businesses.

The initiative is delivered through Carmarthenshire County Council in conjunction with Coleg Sir Gâr and University of Wales Trinity Saint David and forms part of the council’s commitment to developing entrepreneurship within the county.

The Beacon Bursary is an open business competition for new business starts in any sector, any age, Carmarthenshire residents or UWTSD and Coleg Sir Gar students. It offers a cash prize of up to £3,000 or office space in The Beacon.
