As announced at the end of May, James Caan, was appointed by Lord Young as Chairman of the Board on the government initiative Start Up Loans. The £82.5 million project sees James Caan and Bev James working together once again, along with an impressive team of board members. The EBA are delighted to support the Start Up Loans company in their quest to provide 18-24 year olds with the tools, mentoring and capital required to start up their own business. Could you be the volunteer mentor that James Caan is looking for?

In 25 days time, De Vere West One (opposite the BBC in Portland Place) will be full of entrepreneurs and business owners clambering for THE best business knowledge they can get their hands on in one day.

No doubt you have heard this quote many times – “Fail to plan and prepare plan to fail.” It’s not exactly a worthless platitude is it? The truth is that unless you know where you are heading, without the right kind of plan you are unlikely to get to your exact desired destination.

Our event on Saturday was extremely well attended and our thanks for all who came. We do pick sunny days for our seminars don’t we? Before the seminar started, we established that 50% of delegates in the room were planning to become an entrepreneur and 50% were already business owners.

STOP PRESS: We’re excited to announce the new date for our next EBA TOTAL Business Mastery Seminar will take place on Saturday 20th August 2011 in Central London!
