Meet successful entrepreneurs at The National Franchise Exhibition

Two successful entrepreneurs, including one of Alan Sugar’s original apprentices, are among the many industry experts set to share the secrets of their success at the Growing Your Own Business seminars at The National Franchise Exhibition taking place on 24 & 25 February 2012 at the NEC, Birmingham.

Thomas Power is delivering the keynote address at The National Franchise Exhibition called ‘Twitter can rule the world’. He was one of Alan Sugar’s original apprentices in the 1980s. Thomas is an internationally acclaimed speaker on digital media and coaches business people worldwide on how to ‘Go Social’ online. He also founded Ecademy, offering business support and networking groups for entrepreneurs and small business owners.

Nicolas Holzherr will deliver an inspiring session called ‘Anyone can do it: choosing the right ideas, testing them and developing them into a business on a shoestring budget.’

Since his graduation in 2009, Nicolas has already founded three companies, QRky Ltd, which uses quick response technology to link digital contact and multimedia data to printed business cards; Recip.ly, which links recipe websites with online supermarkets; and Co-Go Coffee To Go Ltd, which sells high-quality, ethical takeaway coffee.

Growing Your Own Business is a valuable arena for aspiring entrepreneurs to learn from the experts everything they need to know about how to build a successful business. The series of seminars is just one of the many features at The National Franchise Exhibition which also has a wide range of franchise businesses exhibiting from the UK’s biggest brands to smaller recession-resilient enterprises.
