A BUSINESS networking event tomorrow will see the official launch of two teen businesses.
CR Web Designs and Create My Canvas will be launched by the Mayor of Blackburn with Darwen, Coun Karimeh Foster, at Darwen Aldridge Community Academy.
It has been organised by Darwen Creates, the business support project based at the academy, for Global Entrepreneurship Week.
Kyle Craven, 17, set up CR Web Designs after creating a website for his dad’s business. He said: “I’d really recommend anyone my age with an idea to do something with it.”
Inzi Ulhaq came up Create My Canvas with a friend after they attended a workshop at Darwen Vale High School. He said: “ It was really exciting making our first sale.”
