    DescriptionIn an eco-minded culture, students of Robert Phillips, senior lecturer at the University of Manchester’s Alliance Manchester Business School, readily present green solutions, he said. But it is hard for students to start a business outside the “relatively safe” university incubator model, with just 5 per cent of students having their own business six months after leaving university. Especially in manufacturing, businesses require a lot of money to start, and it’s a big step for students to take, Phillips said.
