And it's not a typo, more an attempt to create an eye catching headline to describe the Business Start-Up and Social Enterprise and Franchise Show at Olympia that opened yesterday.
The organisers and I are old friends and as always, I delivered a seminar to a packed hall. This time it was '10 Simple Steps to Starting a Social Enterprise'. The exhibition hall was buzzing with prospective entrepreneurs.
What a shame then that so many exhibitors seemed to have booked and not turned up. Around 10% of the stands were empty and there was room at the show for perhaps 50 more. Everyone talks about inspiring and encouraging enterprise, which is about taking risks, buttoo few seem willing to invest a little time and money in helping others make that happen.
If you work with young businesses - make sure you take a stand at the next one!
