SUMMARY:Shaping Future Entrepreneurs: House of Commons Reception Hosted by Lord McNicol
DESCRIPTION:Lord McNicol of West Kilbride\, on behalf of Ziyx\, supported by The Payments Association\nis delighted to invite you to the reception for the launch of: \nYoung Entrepreneurship Programme\nShaping Future Entrepreneurs: House of Commons Reception Hosted by Lord McNicol  \nMonday 10th November13.30 – 16.30 GMTTerrace Pavilion\, House of Commons \nOnly 50 spaces available1 person per companyAimed at C-suite and Policy leaders \nBackground\nWe are operating in a period of unprecedented change. As AI is forecast to reshape the job market\, displacing millions\, the need for adaptable\, entrepreneurial skills has never been greater. \nAt the same time\, a significant proportion of young people are disengaged from traditional education and employment pathways\, yet express a strong desire to start their own businesses. \nThis invites a crucial line of thought: is our current support system designed for the entrepreneurs of the future? \nKey Questions\n\n\nWhat if the traditional methods of business support\, heavily reliant on auditory learning\, inadvertently exclude the 65% of the population who are visual and kinaesthetic learners? \n\n\nCould this be a significant\, overlooked barrier to social mobility\, and a contributor to the UK’s ranking of 21st globally in this area? \n\n\nWith the evolving attention span of young people\, does the next generation require a more immersive\, personalised\, and engaging form of learning to build the skills needed to thrive alongside AI? \n\n\nWith the rise of AI displacing up to 3 million UK jobs in the next decade\, how do we ensure people are retrained—or supported in choosing an independent path? \n\n\nWhy Digital Game-Based Learning (DGBL)?\nDigital Game-Based Learning presents a fascinating avenue for this discussion. Early research suggests its positive impact on motivation\, comprehension\, and confidence\, potentially offering a more inclusive and effective model. \nReception Goals\nThis reception aims to be a catalyst for conversation\, bringing together leaders to discuss: \n\n\nThe gap between entrepreneurial ambition and opportunity. \n\n\nThe role of AI and new learning models in shaping the future of work. \n\n\nHow we can collectively foster a more inclusive and adaptive ecosystem for entrepreneurship.
