The National Association of College & University Entrepreneurs, abbreviated to and operating as NACUE, is a national organisation in the United Kingdom that promotes entrepreneurship amongst students in higher education and further education. It supports student enterprise societies at colleges and universities, through its existing network of 240 enterprise societies, as well as assisting new societies.
NACUE was founded in 2009, bringing together twelve enterprise societies at universities across the country. It became a charity in 2011, by which time its network consisted of 70 societies. At this stage, the government set an aim of having an enterprise society at every university in the country, with the network growing to 130 societies by 2013, almost 200 by 2014, and over 240 by 2015.
NACUE also organises over twenty events a year. NACUE's largest event is the annual Student Enterprise Conference; the most recent conference, in January and February 2015, attracted 800 student entrepreneurs – up from 200 at the first conference, in 2010. The Student Enterprise Conference is Europe's largest conference dedicated to student enterprise.
NACUE's CEO is Johnny Luk, while its chairman is Timothy Barnes.
