Imty, the founder and successful business owner of Gtech Motorworks, shared his personal journey from humble beginnings to building a thriving business in the automotive industry.
With his wealth of experience, he provided students with invaluable advice on the practicalities of running a business, offering a rare glimpse into the world of entrepreneurship.
His guidance went beyond theory, equipping the students with essential financial insights and real-world tools to navigate the challenges they’ll face as they move forward in the industry.
Imty’s session also focused on the importance of learning, dedication, and developing a strong skill set in automotive repair and design.
To bring his message to life, he brought along his own rebuilt BMW 240i track car, a testament to how persistence and hard work can lead to incredible results.
The vehicle, a remarkable showcase of craftsmanship and precision, was a source of inspiration for the students, illustrating the direct impact of applying their knowledge and skills in the real world.
As the students gathered around the impressive track car, the sense of awe and motivation was palpable.
Imty took the time to explain the intricacies of the rebuild, discussing the technical challenges he faced and the learning experiences that made the project a success.
His passion for automotive engineering and his commitment to excellence resonated deeply with the students, who were eager to learn and apply similar principles in their own studies and future careers.
“The students were thoroughly engaged throughout the session,” said Gareth Sullivan-Pearce, Automotive Technologies Team Manager for Derby College Group.
“Imty’s ability to combine real-world business advice with technical expertise is invaluable.
“It’s really good that students get to hear firsthand from someone who has built a successful business in the automotive sector while also being deeply involved in the hands-on, technical side of the industry.”
