The entrepreneurs masterclass

Business nightmares, and how to recover from them: The entrepreneurs’ masterclass,
British Library Conference Centre 18.15 – 20.00 Followed by a reception until 21.00 £10.00 (concessions £7.50)

Is the current economic downturn keeping you awake at night?
Weighing up the risks of setting up a new business or adapting to maintain your existing business becomes even more important in turbulent times. But difficult times can bring unexpected opportunities as well. ‘Business Nightmares’ is a unique chance to hear from a panel of leading entrepreneurs about how they survived their rollercoaster ride and built business success on the back of the lessons learned.

Hear from Rachel Elnaugh, one of the original Dragons’ Den team whose own business, Red Letter Days, collapsed into administration in 2005, Gavin Griffiths, ex-owner of the Erotic Review, Bradley Chapman of Million Impossible, and Aamir Ahmed of dwell. Supported by HSBC, the world’s local bank.
