A UWE Team Entrepreneurship team company
Zenith is a team of 14 student entrepreneurs at UWE Bristol. We run our own businesses, work on real projects with clients and charities, and help each other get further than we would alone.
Who we are
Mission
To achieve our exit strategy by evaluating our progress, seeking and sharing opportunities, using course resources, gaining experience, giving honest feedback and building strong relationships.
Vision
For every member of Zenith to exceed their personal ambitions because they have the confidence, skills and relationships to fulfil them.
We set targets that stretch us and measure ourselves against last year.
We put the hours in, in sessions and on our own ventures.
If we say we will do it, it gets done, on time.
We share opportunities and give honest feedback so everyone moves forward.
Team goals and personal goals pull in the same direction.
What we offer
Our members run real businesses, from software for sales teams and estate agents to event consultancy and supplements. If you need a product or service, one of us probably builds it.
We take on projects with organisations, such as our corporate partnership work with CEDA in Exeter, and deliver them as a team with clear goals and reporting.
We run workshops, networking events and community events for the TE community and beyond, and every event is rated so we keep improving.
We test ideas quickly, talk to customers and report back honestly, which is useful if you want a new perspective on a problem.

Projects this year
A 90 day pilot with CEDA, a disability charity in Exeter, approaching local employers to build corporate partnerships, starting with a five-runner Great West Run team.
Key learning
Charity partnerships need a clear benefit for the employer, not just the cause.
Two of our members are running a client project alongside the Praxis team company this year.
Key learning
Working across teams means agreeing roles and deadlines in writing at the start.
Every venture owner has a customer target for 1 May 2027, tracked weekly, so the team can see exactly where each business is.
Key learning
Tracking real numbers every week beats estimating at the end of the year.
Our ventures track and reduce their environmental footprint, and we measure the impact of our projects against UN Sustainable Development Goal 4.4.
Key learning
Impact only counts if you can measure it, so we use a Theory of Change.
Workshops, a Christmas dinner, the TE Awards Night and a Learning Journey, each rated by the people who attend.
Key learning
Asking for a rating after every event shows us what people actually value.
