About
| Social Committee |
Madeeha Husain As a Masters student studying Law, it's probably a given that I enjoy reading. I also like to travel, ski, paint, socialise and debate (a little). I find entrepreneurship an exciting way to take some risks and explore my creative side within a business environment. I love to embrace the energy and drive that entrepreneurship entails. I will endeavour to offer you a fun array of social events for you this year, to keep all of you entertained!
Khrystyna Andronova
khrystyna@uclentrepreneurs.com Originally from Ukraine, Kharkov, I'm a second year student, doing BSc Information Management for Business. Studying this course has helped me to develop skills, including: a solid core of business, technical skills, project management, team working and leadership. As for my future plans, I would love to start a business. That is primarily why I decided to join the society. I am the Social Officer of UCL Entrepreneurs Society, a role aimed at organizing and assisting events of the society. I am very passionate about this role, as I thoroughly enjoy meeting new people and networking. |

Hussein Kapacee I am on a 2 year part time MSc course in Technology Entrepreneurship. My course is all about building and managing high tech organisations and getting people within an organization to reach their maximum potential. Whilst studying for my Engineering undergrad degree at Manchester University, I started a tech repair business. As my customer base grew, I decided to move into the retail business. I formed relationships with suppliers that imported computer related products directly from Korea and was able to get goods at wholesale prices but at retail quantities. I want to be instrumental in promoting the London Start up scene and for me there is no better institution to do this than UCL.
Imogen Bachra
I'm a first year, studying Economics. Outside of my degree, I'm a keen squash player and enjoy going out and socialising. The challenge that entrepreneurship presents alongside the exciting career prospects are what attracted me to the society. I'm looking forward to organising and partaking in unique and fun events as Events Officer! |

Amandeep Gill
I am currently a Second Year Economics student at UCL. I have previous experience within investment banks such as J.P.Morgan, BNP Paribas and Nomura, where I was able to grasp a firm understanding about banking as well as develop and utilise key competencies such as teamwork, leadership and analytical skills. But ultimately, I would like to work for myself and I love anything to do with entrepreneurship. I was actively involved in the Society last year, and will use this insight to bring forward fresh ideas as Marketing Director.
Jennifer Davy
I'm a second year Chemistry student and it has always been one of my career aspirations to start up my own business. By being in the society and taking on the role as Marketing Officer, I will look to build my entrepreneurial skills and help promote the society to open the eyes of many to an exciting new world. |

Katie Manescu
I am a Biochemical Engineering student with a particular interest in entrepreneurship. I thrive in creative business environments encouraging self-development. I like to take an active part in other activities and I enjoy playing tennis, sailing and most of all, meeting new and interesting friends!
Ali Tehrani
I am studying Economics and Geography and am in my 1st Year. Currently, I am in the process of building a startup, leading a team of three programmers and pitching to angle investors. During this project, I have received first hand experience of the problems entrepreneurs face. Last year, I was a student at QMUL where I was an Economics course representative, President of Students in Free Enterprise Society and founder of the Bright Futures Society. I aim to use these past experiences to add value to the UCL Entrepreneurs society.
Azeem Ahmed
Amongst a multitude of failures, I have successfully built and sold 3 web businesses by the tender age of 20. With experience in fund-raising, business growth from conception through to sale, and everything in between, I believe that ultimately success is achieved by tuning percentage point increases in performance across the board, biasing the end results in your favour. As a 1st Year Representative, I am here to help you achieve your goals, and if you're not sure what they are yet, I will help you realize them, but please, optimists only, because at least you look for solutions! |

Vanessa Gstettenbauer
I'm Vanessa, a second year Chemistry student. In my time at UCL I've touched ground with various societies, from Kickboxing to Musical Theatre, but my real passion has always been to be a social entrepreneur - so let's be entrepreneurial together this year and make things happen!
Alison Reboud
Hi I'm a 1st year undergraduate studying Economics and Statistics. For me, Entrepreneurship is for people who refuse to become submerged by the constant change of the world. Innovation and involvement are the two main needs of Entrepreneurship and that's why I enjoy it. I am personally very interested in social entrepreneurship, finding innovative solutions to deal with society's most pressing social problems. We're ambitious, so get involved! |

Bernhard Huemer
I am in my final year of a BSc Computer Science programme at UCL, aspiring an entrepreneurial career where I can not only share my strong belief about how technology will impact businesses and consumer society in the near future, but also take part in that process myself. My career aspirations in technology manifested themselves from an early age, which is why I even got hired as a consultant at Credit Suisse before I finished my A-Levels. By being the Competition Director, I hope to inspire the student body at UCL about the possibilities and challenges of entrepreneurship.
Competition Officer
I am currently a second year Economics student at UCL, with a keen interest in football and an avid supporter of Liverpool FC. I also have a passion for entrepreneurship, which flourished through my role in helping to start a new business as part of the UCL StartUp Summer Programme. As the Competition officer, I am looking forward to organising events such as the Apprentice Challenge, and hope to aid the creation of an entrepreneurial spirit across UCL. |

I hope I can make your experience with the UCL Entrepreneurs Society the best possible and help you all reach your entrepreneurial goals.
