Vodafone has named Jenk Oz, the 16-year-old founder and CEO of social enterprise company Thred Media, as the winner of the latest edition of its Shout Out for Small Businesses competition.
Launched last year, the Shout Out for Small Businesses competition celebrates entrepreneurs using digital skills and technology to drive their small businesses forward in innovative ways within today’s challenging business environment.
As the overall winner, Jenk won a personal mentoring session with Dragons’ Den star, entrepreneur and V-Hub Ambassador Steven Bartlett. Steven used his years of business expertise and experience to provide a tailored assessment of Thred Media, helping Jenk to identify development and growth opportunities. In addition, Thred Media also received a dedicated Facebook and Instagram social media marketing campaign boost to help broaden awareness of their business, alongside an in-depth digital business strategy consultation with a Vodafone V-Hub adviser.
