Nathan Chan

SBE BSc Economics student Nathan Chan has won the Year in Enterprise Placement Student of the Year award for his business Esk8supply, which is an online market place for electric skateboard parts. 

Nathan has sold over 200 products bringing in $25000 of income and has over 800 subscribers to their various social media channels.

They have collaborated with 5 suppliers in China, despite the lockdown there causing issues with deliveries since January.

They are now taking a salary from their business and also paying another employee who they collaborated with on another project on the 2019 IDEA programme and in the true spirit of the LEN network they recently put forward their business to be one of the projects for House Hack run by two of the Develop cohort, an online lockdown hackathon.

Congratulations, Nathan!
