A Belfast woman has opened up on being inspired by her grandmother to launch her "revolutionary" medical dermatology business.
Pragya said: “When it comes to Gran Lab, I have real-life experience, through my grandmother and hundreds of others suffering with serious skin conditions, and it’s my goal to help as many people as possible with these products, so they can enjoy the same health benefits as my Nani, who has been symptom-free for four years now.
The Go For It programme is delivered free by a team of experienced business mentors through Northern Ireland’s network of enterprise agencies. It provides advice and support to develop a business plan that helps entrepreneurs turn their ideas into commercial businesses. Councillor Clíodhna Nic Bhranair, Chair of Belfast City Council Growth and Regeneration Committee said: “I’m delighted to see first-hand how the Go For it programme has given Pragya the support and guidance she needed to help get her business venture off the ground.
Melanie Fitzpatrick, Business Advisor at Ormeau Business Park said: “Pragya had a clear vision for Gran Lab and together, we created a comprehensive business plan outlining the steps to make her vision a reality.
