Dear All
This week in addition to the DWFM Beckman office Christmas Party at The Landmark in London I attended 2 other parties the first held by The Discener and the other by The Egg Free Cakebox.
All 3 were very different in there own way but equally special. Here are some observations that made these events memorable in no particular order:
i) Performances on stage – musical…..

Great to have seen Randi Zuckerberg on stage at the London Law Expo 2015 and have her sign my copy of Dot Complicated which I featured here in January 2014. Randi is high energy and connects with the audience a pleasure to hear her present.
I’d like to share 10 points I picked up on the day:
1) We are living in a time of the “entreployee” – when employees need to be thinking like entrepreneurs.
2) Think like a media company – what…..
A small or medium-sized enterprise, or SME, as defined by the European Commission is a business or company:
that has fewer than 250 employees; and has either (a) annual turnover not exceeding €50 million (approximately £40 million) or (b) an annual balance-sheet total not exceeding €43 million (approximately £34 million); and of whose capital or voting…..
Following from my last post you will note that I arrived early at the Pea Awards. After introducing myself to the solicitors that represented ELF I introduced myself to Larissa Clark who turned out to be responsible for media/PR for the Big 60 Million projects. She certainly did her job well as she explained with real passion what the Big 60 million was all about and the feedback it was getting. After a good chat we parted wishing each other…..
On Thursday 27th November 2014 I attended the PEA (People Environment & Achievement) Awards. http://www.peaawards.com/news-press/

The event was held at No1 Invicta Plaza South Bank London SE1 9UF with this years theme being…..
Dear All
Since my last blog post here is an update on my journey to promote the 3 E’s (Ethical, Effective Entrepreneurship):
1) I met Lord Digby Jones (The New Troubleshooter) at Elite Business Conference and Exhibition in April this year. Lord Digby is a strong supporter of SMEs and the important role they play in achieving a strong economy. In addition to this what makes The New Troubleshooter even more interesting is the fact that he used to be…..
Unfortunately I was unable to attend on the first day however I made my way to The Old Brewery in Shoreditch on Friday with an air of excitement and an open mind as I always do to these types of events as you can pick up some real gems if you are patient and persistent.
You will know from my book The Book on Entrepreneurship and Property that I have a particular interest in start ups and small and…..
The book Dot Complicated explores the relationship between technology and media its future and why we shouldn’t be put off by the complications of tech on our daily lives. Rather the author proposes that we embrace the technological changes around us and that we make sure that we are not ruled by our gadgets. Know when to put your mobile down during dinner and that we should be our “authentic” selves online.
After graduating from Harvard University Randi went to…..
