Training
Duncan Bannatyne

'Teesside University is a fantastic university for working with business, and what it’s doing to stimulate entrepreneurship is very close to my heart. I know from the start up companies I’ve dealt with and the graduates I’ve taken on in my own business they’ve got what it takes to succeed.’
Duncan Bannatyne, honorary graduate and star of Dragon’s Den.
