UCL recently caught up with School of Management MSc Entrepreneurship alumnus Chitraj (Raj) Singh, a former Risk Specialist turned Entrepreneur and founder of mental wellbeing start-up MindHug. When Chitraj left a successful career in financial services to pursue his passion and launch his start-up, he went against everything he had ever learnt as a Risk Specialist and he took a punt on himself and his innovative idea.

As Women’s History month drew to a close, we caught up with our highly successful alumnae, Joyce and Raissa de Haas, to reflect on their time as MSc Technology Entrepreneurship (now MSc Entrepreneurship) students, the reality of working as twin sisters and how UCL Bright Ideas assisted in taking their internationally prosperous business, Double Dutch Drinks, from concept to reality.

School of Management Alumni Ayush Baid’s eco-friendly, sustainable yet stylish kitchenware company, ellementry, has become a lead runner on the international e-commerce market. Hear how he developed the idea whilst studying at UCL School of Management.
