START UP Founderships is back after two-year hiatus

Joshy Jin, Marketing & Management BSc graduate was a Founderships recipient in 2015. The 6-month initiative allowed for Joshy to get his idea for Sichuan fine dining reaching new heights within the region.

Joshy started his studies at Newcastle University through the INTO service for two years before going onto study Marketing Management BA. In his second year of studies, Joshy chose the Management route and the ‘Business Enterprise’ module. This was the moment where Joshy spotted a gap in the market for Sichuan fine dining and came up with a business idea incorporating all aspects of the fine dining experience, from the menu to the restaurant interior.
