We bring learning to life through business.
At Enterprise Skills, we're building career-ready students through commercial awareness, for business students AND the 3.5 million teenagers who need workplace skills.
Through smart tools and immersive simulations, we turn lessons into experiences, giving young people the confidence, skills, and mindset to make better decisions in the classroom and in life.
Meet the TeamWhy We Exist
Too much of education still hinges on recall, repetition, and theory. It's a system that rewards memorising, not understanding. Yet every student, from future doctors to artists, needs to understand how organisations work.
That's where we come in.
We build commercial awareness through active learning. Our simulations and tools don't just serve business students, more than 56% of participants study other subjects. Whether delivering curriculum excellence or supporting Gatsby Benchmarks, we help schools develop genuinely career-ready young people through practical, purposeful experiences.

Every career
requires commercial understanding
Making 1 million young people career-ready by 2030 through commercial awareness that works for any career path.
Through immersive digital simulations and smart, supportive tools, we foster engagement, build understanding, and instil confidence in a risk-free environment.
To build commercial awareness at scale, from 527,000 business students to 3.5 million career-ready young people.
We're the bridge between classroom theory and workplace reality. Through curriculum-aligned tools and careers provision, we help schools develop students who don't just know about business, they understand how every organisation works, preparing them for any career in the modern economy.

Our Journey
Proving the Concept
We started with business education, building and validating our simulation model with business teachers. We achieved an NPS of 69 from 630+ students, mapped our tools to all UK exam boards, and developed the Skills Hub platform.
Expanding Impact
We discovered something unexpected: 56% of our simulation participants weren't even business students. Every student needs commercial awareness, regardless of what they study. So we expanded from serving 527,000 business students to reaching all 3.5 million teenagers who need workplace readiness.
This isn't a pivot, it's a strategic evolution. Same team, same platform, broader impact.
Where We're Going
We're building a business that's scalable and sustainable, without ever losing sight of the value we bring to the classroom.
