Students were given a powerful dose of entrepreneurial inspiration today as the college welcomed Jack Ali as part of its ongoing Inspire Me Talk series.

Jack, a multi-award-winning entrepreneur, shared his remarkable journey of building and scaling businesses across the UK, the Middle East, Asia and Africa. Drawing on years of international experience, he offered students valuable insight into the realities of entrepreneurship, from spotting opportunities and overcoming challenges, to leading successful ventures on a global stage.

He spoke candidly about his transition from launching international enterprises to now heading a thriving financial planning firm, highlighting the adaptability, resilience and strategic thinking required to succeed in business.

However, it was not just his commercial success that resonated with students. Jack’s commitment to supporting the next generation of entrepreneurs proved equally inspiring. Through grants, mentorship programmes and hands-on growth opportunities, he actively helps young people transform innovative ideas into viable businesses.

Students left the session motivated by his message to think bigger, aim higher and have confidence in their own potential.

The college extended its thanks to Jack for delivering an engaging and impactful talk, and for encouraging students to pursue their ambitions with determination and belief.
