Meet the UK Team
The Rebel Business School UK was set up in 2012 by Alan Donegan and Simon Paine to respond to the state of the jobs market and the quality of intervention available to those people who want to make their own money. Traditional types of enterprise support don't work for a lot of people. The Rebel Business School UK was designed to fill the gap by providing high quality inspiration, support, interventions and acceleration for enterprising people. We want to help build sustainable communities by enabling people to create wealth. People that find the strength and courage to develop business ideas deserve the best possible help. We inspire, excite, build confidence and show individuals the tools available to give them every chance we can to succeed.

Meet the founders
ALAN DONEGAN
When setting up his own business 12 years ago Alan went to Business Link a government funded organisation who did more to scare him off starting than they did help! This experience inspired Alan to turn entrepreneurship on its head and he developed the Rebel Business School to support the people that are scared off by business plans, debt and formal/traditional planning. Alan’s first business is Enjoy Presenting, running courses for people like Microsoft, Pepsi and Air Arabia. In his spare time Alan loves comedy, making pizza and occasionally playing with Lego. Winner of the 2016 Entrepreneur Of The Year Award at the Inspire Awards. Alan has recently launched his own blog if you want to check it out here. Alan Donegan's Blog
