What our attendees say

The event has been very helpful today and cleared up some things for me. Most people think its a big thing to start a business but everything starts with the first step.

I've got some good information today and made a few contacts. Also signed up to further support to take my business idea to the next stage

Today's been very useful in terms of getting myself to think out of the box.
