Enactus

What is Enactus?

Enactus aims to support young people in the UK to engage in youth social action and youth social enterprise. We believe that investing in students who take ENtrepreneurial ACTion for others creates a better world for US all. Globally, our community of 72,000 members operate in 36 different countries and dedicates 7,300 hours annually.

What do we do?

At Enactus LSE, we are shifting our focus towards hands-on entrepreneurship. In the winter term, we will host a Start-up Pitch Night, where members pitch their ideas and the society votes to select the strongest one. In the spring term, that winning idea will become our collective project, as we work together to build and launch it into a real sustainable business.  

Throughout this journey, participants will gain access to workshops, mentorship, and training opportunities designed to strengthen both entrepreneurial and professional skills. Our collaborations with LSE Generate, Enactus UK, and industry partners further ensure that projects have the guidance and support needed to come to life.

One of the defining characteristics of our society is that we’re action-oriented. We are not here to simply talk about ideas; we are here to create. From generating concepts and prototyping to developing a business proposition and delivering social impact. Enactus LSE is a space where innovation becomes reality.

Why join us?

Seize the opportunity to work on multiple projects in a fast-paced environment, improve your communication, learn how to lead, manage workflows and even brainstorm ideas to innovate. Most importantly, join us to cultivate your inner gratitude and generosity, to simply give back to society. If that doesn’t convince you, then at least doing good sounds impressive to your employers too.

Come join our network of over 3,000 students in the UK across 60+ universities, all with the same aspiration to create a better, more sustainable world. Here at Enactus LSE, you will be a part of the most successful Enactus teams in the UK as we invite you to join us on our journey to change lives. Just last year, we placed top 8 out of 62 teams at the annual Enactus Nationals Competition, won multiple shortlists for grants to fund our projects and were ultimately recognised as the “Most Improved” team both by Enactus UK and LSESU!

Joining Enactus will take you on a completely transformative journey that bridges the gap between traditional education and the working world. Excelling in lectures does not guarantee that you will succeed in a highly demanding and ever-changing workplace. With a fixed curriculum and a niche focus on a few skills, something needs to change. This is where Enactus comes in as we provide you with practical, hands-on learning so you can truly understand how things work. Jumpstart your career today by showing your employers you are capable of doing good and doing well at the same time.
