Benedict Dellot, a senior researcher at the RSA, said: “Many [young people] do not conform to traditional stereotypes of entrepreneurs. Instead, they often stumble into business 'accidentally’, start up on a shoestring budget and with an imperfect product, and rely on a whole host of other people – mostly personal acquaintances – to get them to where they want to be. There’s an urgent need for support organisations to quickly get up to speed on this rapidly changing businesses environment.”
